    I wasn’t offered the option. Was told to talk to some of the dealers closest to the home base in Missouri. Which is what I guess I’ll need to do. Seems like the best option for what I’m looking for , which is a big water boat. The 522D is awesome but just too large for the times I fish smaller water or river systems.

    I agree, mostly. I like the dash layout as I have 2 9" units that fit just fine.
    I got nothin

    There is one in Breckenridge near Hubbard Creek. It's longer than my 210, but not as wide at the front pedestal. Won't be that much smaller than a 223 (22'3")

    Awesome - first, is it what you hoped for fishing big water here in Texas? And second, when could I drive over and have a look at it?

    Yes, it's all I hoped far, very good rough water hull. If I were in the market to buy a new boat, I would order another 596. I'm free most of July and first part of August.

    Sounds exactly like what I’m looking for. Can’t wait to see it in person.
