Very nice boat, but I'll be the odd one out....I think it's ugly. :jawdrop: I do appreciate the work and skill that has gone into it, just not my style at all.

I'm with you RS... lots of time into paint on that one, the riggers were probably done way before all that paint work. Maybe we will feel differently when we see it, maybe not?
I just can't wait for this weekend!

It is not my style either but, to each their own. The detail not seen by the camera is UNREAL! The painter was told "no holds barred" when given the job.

HooterSled,
This is a 27', the 30 should be out in mid-March.
You better stop by the show, Bobby sez you are buying ALL the beer. :D

Love the big azz exhaust tips and tabs hanging off the back of the boat.
Althought the paint is not my style, it definitely would get my attention.
I bet starting that thing in the convention center would definitely get everyones attention real quick. :rollside:

I wasn't trying to take anything away from anyones boats that were in the booth last years. Poor choice of wording I'd guess you'd say.

Always nice to see a boat that is just plain over the top. I personally don't like the graphics, but always respect the time and effort that goes into building cusoms like that. After all, who wants a boat that is identical to the one next to it. If we did, we would all own Bayliners.

I was at the show last night. I wish I had seen the Dana up close but I didn't quite make it to their booth.
If you're gonna see Jesse James' boat in person for the first time, you're gonna be impressed. :cool:
I have picts of other things being setup but chose not to post 'em (don't want to ruin the show for everyone going ;) ).

Why do I get the feeling that Cletus in Smokey and the Bandit might have owned that boat if they made that movie today...
That's some sick shizzle. I think I may be a future Dana Owner from what I have seen and heard... we'll see! :wink:
Dr. Eagle, quit shoppin' and pull the trigger on the Dana !!! If you hurry, you can enjoy early this season while everyone else is standing in line and wishing !! :D
