New Boat!

Picked it up yesterday, hoping to get it out on the water this weekend. I am consistently amazed at the quality that goes into these boats. Has the new PCM 343 with the catalytic converter.

Alan, I think you made an excellent choice.

I like the graphics on that! I was never a fan of the tribal graphic look or fake flame or whatever that was. Nice boat. Look at the cup holders!

I know what people mean when they say the pictures don't do any justice. The boat is gorgeous in person. Anyone that can make it to VA is welcome to come take a set, trying to spread the MB Sports Love!

Nice boat Alan! Looks strikingly similar in many respects to my Epic...They must be made with the same parts(driver's chair, cupholders, speaker insets).

Great looking boat, I love the white. How does the 4 runner do with it?

(alans) · (alans) **Join Date: Aug 2005** 09-10-2009, 8:21 AM

4-Runner does great, it has the V8 and auto level. Replaced my '06 tahoe and pulls just as well, IMHO. 7,300 lb tow capacity. I would recommend it to anyone pulling a <23' vdrive. Also came with a lifetime engine and power train warranty. Also slipped under $40k with every option possible.

BTW, I used to be a boat dealer and towed 30-50k a year with a Suburban, a tahoe, Ford 350, and a Ford 350 dually.

I like the clean lines and the open back on the drivers seat. Offers a little cool/dry spot on your back.

Does anyone know if there are any newer MB's around Minnesota? I've never really seen one in person, and would love to check one out.

Very NICE!!! Cant wait to see the wake! I saw a Tomcat 23 from AWS on the Lower Colorado this weekend, fit and finish is over the top. Keep up the good work MB!

I know there is one 08 V23 up there somewhere, not sure where the guy rides at. There are a couple here in IL though and a dealer in MI.

I too have never been a fan of the look of MBs, but this is a sharp boat. Makes me want one.

She's a beaut!!

MB's are catching my eye more and more.

Nice looking Alan, always had a fondness for MB's, since they have central Cal roots, and originally sprouted out of Sanger country...

congrats! I have never really cared for the graphics on the outside but have always loved the interiors. Boat looks pimp enjoy.

Nice boat!!!!!!! I'm thinking of looking at a tomcat. I just have not herd that much about them. I really like the lines and the room of the boat. just need to drive and board one

Sweet ride but looks like you could run out of cupholders fairly quickly.

I tried to find a pic of Ian's MB Widebody full of people, but I couldn't find it on my hard drive. I'll check again tonight. For a 21 foot boat, you can get a lot of people on it.

Here are a few pics with lots of people in mine.

We had 13 on Memorial Day (6 adults + 7 kids... 2 not in picture)

We had 11 here (all adults). Notice with the 10 on board it is very comfortable with plenty of seating to spare...

Never seen so many cupholders! Nice looking boat.

Not a dealer and have not been for over a year.
