if i ever get crazy enough to buy a new boat that is the boat i will buy.I love the lines of the 247 another it is big enough for ocean play but not oversized for a lake(about as big as you can go for a lake boat IMO)Nice boat BTW:)

Cool I was debating if I wanna put a set of Dana tabs on mine because I was not sure if I need them or if they would make much of a difference. I guess I'll wait till you try the boat out and get your opinion before I spend the money on a set.

I wish all of my customers were as easy to work with as THOR and Mrs. THOR.
I hope you both enjoy it as much as we have enjoyed building it for you!

Nice boat THOR. I think Ultra does some of the best Gel work in the industry.

If I can get it in time, I will be with some friends at the Islander Memorial weekend, but it is not looking good.
More than likely I will be on the water the firs time the day before OP6. Here is the plan:
steamboat till about noon, then Topock, then the sandar, then speed alley, then Kokomos, then I call for a taxi ride back to the condo. :D

I'm sorry (totally boat un-aware) does 247 mean your boat is 24ft?
