    When I was at the factory a couple of years ago, they had the regular red color and they had a maroon which was a darker color. I thought that was the best looking color I had seen. Either I am seeing shades or it is the maroon which really looks good.

    i have a Yamaha F115 and it has been a GREAT GREAT motor. Reliable and quiet and pretty powerful but the SHO even has a little more HP under the cowl.

    YOU DID NICE WITH THE MOTOR CHOICE. I'm jealous. You will have that setup a long time..

    Beautiful boat!!! Though I got the boat I originally wanted I was prepared to buy a Ranger or the Triton aluminum. There are times I wish I had gotten one like now as I look at your pic but, I'm reminded why I bought my boat and all is good. I saved thousands in the long run but I got a boat that I can handle the rough water that I knew I would have to run in the lakes that I fish in Canada not to mention the rough water that I have been in on the big impoundments in Georgia and Alabama.
