congrats, nice looking ride I like the color scheme. I am curious to know what kind of motor your putting in her.

Yeah, that is one sweet hull, what the rest of the details.....?

Lendon Smith
02-05-2003, 02:29 PM
bigq, Yes Ultra 23!
But it will have an extended bow seating and a wrap around seating arrangemnt like a ski boat in the back.
It is only gonna have a 350 mag. :(
But the one we test drove did 62 with the same motor and a 5 blade.
I plan on a pro-charger after the engine warranty runs out.
Also, the mid cabin area is set up for storage with a spot made on each side for a cooler.
There will be a spot under the seat cushins for the easy-up. The ski locker is oversized for boards and it is gonna have a ski pole.
Full width billet swim step.
Thru transom.
Pioneer am/fm with remote 5 channel amp and s 10 inch subs.

Very original lines, can't say I've seen them used before. Looks great!

Lendon Smith

Well,
John has used the same basic scheme on a couple of 28`s. But no where the same colors.

Nice job! Simple and uncluttered lines that still make a statement (watching too much design channel on tv). Can't go wrong with yellow in my book. Have fun this summer!

Nice Boat. Love the lines one of the best ive seen on here for my taste! Good Luck...
P.S. A 350 :confused: I hope you atleast get the B1 for future power!

Lendon Smith
02-06-2003, 10:38 AM
Yeah,
I know, no balls!
But since I am buying it with my wife and her sister, they voted me down on the big block.
You know the drill, "60 is plenty fast enough, we have kids, yada,yada,yada!"
But with the 5 blade it is a rocket out of the hole and we are big boarders and skiers so for now it will fit the bill.
I did spec a B-1x, alittle bit of an upgrade.
With the procharger I want to add later, it should be in the high 70`s. :D

Nice colors. I like the way it fades from grey to white.

Lendon Smith
02-06-2003, 05:17 PM
Its an ULTRA 23XS.
And it comes with a crawl or walk through cuddy with seats.
But we went for a larger bow section that will fit at least 2 more people and had the bulkhead areas set up for a cooler and storage on both sides.

bundy Lendon,
That is a sweet ride. A word of advice, don't name it. It doesn't matter how cool the name is today, by the time its paid off, it will seem lame. Besides, the three of you will never agree on a name.
bitchen boat,
Vik

Thanks everyone! :D
I will keep the pictures coming.
Cant wait to see it again!
Ya know ordering one is great, but it really starts to set in when you get to see it, and you think to your self " THATS MY F***IN BOAT, AND IS BAD ASS".
I just got a new CR450F this week too, but all I can think about is this damn boat!

Thats a great looking boat. I've seen what they look like with the wrap around seating arrang. they actually have that same ski boat in WaterSki mag. boat buyers guide Jan. 2003. good choice I think thats what I'm going to do with my Genesis.

Lendon Smith
02-07-2003, 03:54 PM
We are having the bow seating pulled back also.
It will make the seating big enough for a couple more peps.If you look at the pictures close you can see what I mean.
Also since you are getting an IO the bench will be at least 6 inchs further back toward the stern than the boat in the waterski pictures.
Makes a big difference in interior room.

Ya, I really like that seating, the more peps the better the party. I like your design, I'm going with trible flames and some ghost stuff like the one they are using for the show. it's clean looking, see you on the water.
