    New 1980cc

    Finally got my new 1980cc. Pictures attached. For those curious about 100% SeaDek. So far it's great - cleans easy, doesn't show dirt much at all (IMO).

    Height to top of grab bar was a concern - garage entrance 82 inches, wanted this under 81 inches to be comfortable. Dealer installed it and got it at about 79 or 80 inches. Only issue is at speed - there's a 'whistle' generated by windshield and grab bar - something a few beers should help solve.

    Came from Tracker 17'7" to this at 19'10" - and another 6 or 7 inches in width. Knew it'd be bigger, but holy cow is it bigger.

    So now that you have had it for a month...what's it like? How does it perform? Speed, ride, fishing, etc.....

    I'm thinking hard about buying a tin bay boat this time around. I really want to look at some but there aren't many to be seen around here.....

    Coming from a 17'7" Tracker it's amazing.
    Speeds 55 at 1500 ft elevation. 51 at 5000ft elevation.
    Better than expected in bigger water. Fishes very well.
    Always a few little things. I'd gladly buy it again.
    Garmin trolling motor is crazy efficient. Came from Motor Guide Xi5.
    SeaDek cleans up easily. I flyfish only, never have bait around, so not sure how the SeaDek is with live bait smashed into it.

    Nice looking boat. I have the same color, just a 2019 model and no SeaDek. That SeaDek looks better than i expected.

    They tell you how long you'd have to wait to get your boat?

    When I ordered mine in June they said 12 to 14 weeks. I've read where a few guys have received boats in 6 weeks. May depend on motor selection? I'm gonna check with my dealer this week.
