I think that is the list price and he would be happy to offer a HB discount.
The standard equipment is retarded...I looked at the boat when he was doing the TT motor with the jets and he has a butt load of coin into each boat.:eek: :)

Getting air—unless you happen to be photographer Tom Newby and helicopter pilot Mark Watters—isn't exactly a common occurrence in Parker.
Unless Nord is driving. :D

The only thing I would change is the 4 huge subs right where you would want to sit. I like loud music but I would rather have a seat back there.
Other than that I love the boat!

I'm a huge fan of the Trident. If yoiu ever get the chance to crawl around and really check it out, you have to appreciate the thought and work that went into the rigging.

I am sure it is, but the location on the port side seating where the subs mount is molded in. It is not even flush with the rest of the bench seat back. That is the only thing I noticed. But I am sure there is an easy solve for that somehow.

That sub enclosure is 100% optional. Normally there would be a seat back there. We have to glass that one in and then color match it. Total pain in the ass, but it is the very best way to project the bass for a party, and it does rock...
Standard location is in a ported enclosure under the helm seat, totally out of the way. We can do anything though.
Thanks for the good words about the boat. We are finally getting the word out. LOTS of people at this show are walking up and telling everyone how the ramp works and everything, and I have never met or seen these folks before. Good news travels fast...
