[QUOTE="thill, post: 494154, member: 4972"] Ldubs, Thanks for the line-by-line feedback. [LIST=1] [*]I think I like the windshields too. In my mind, it will give nice protection. [*]Vinyl seems good in this boat. The blue vinyl will match the carpeted sides and save me a lot of work. Not sure why they have the vinyl trim around the front platform, but yes, that has to go. Platform all the way. [*]Right now, I'm thinking no mounted passenger seat at all, but a removeable pedestal might not be a bad idea. There are two jump seats in the back. [*]I have a 50 Johnson I can drop on. But I've heard everyone likes this boat with a 70. My other boat with a 70 isn't too thirsty. Maybe I'm over-thinking it. [*]That's a very long hose for that front livewell, and if it leaks, that will be a problem. I could just do as you say and use it as a cooler or just storage. There is a lot of storage under that area that isn't being used. Maybe I'll delete the livewell and use that space. [*]That is the question... I have (2) mariners, a 12' Lowe, a pontoon boat and then this one. The others will get restored and sold, but this one might be for me. I've done a lot of boat work, but lately I want to be on the water more than working on boats, especially since I got my new Livescope system! [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
