Reading through this thread, and myself being the buddy that all my friends call when they need to do boat rigging, I'd say let your dealer take care of it at this point. You have a bunch of unknowns...

That's just an Ulterra for offshore boats. That's not an Ultrex and is not compatible with target lock. You can already get the Ulterra and Terrova in up to a 72" shaft. Nobody is asking for a longer...

Any particular reason you want it on a single axle trailer. Tandems tow and handle so much better. The only down side is moving them by hand. They'll move back and forth fine but turning them can be...

Those are disgusting speeds, even at elevation. I mean your losing 50ish hp at 6000 feet on a N/A engine but pretty sure 300hp will push a 622 over 50 mph at sea level. Seems like there might be some...

60" is a no go on my 219TFX. ****, it wasn't even great on my 186TFX. Sure you can use one if you like the prop surfacing on every big wave when it's windy. Considering the wind likes to blow in good...

I'd add it to this years boat order as I think it would help free up my hands from manual scanning around with my FFS and trying to keep the FFS lock on a target or school of fish. The biggest...

To each their own, but the V10 400 is exactly why I waited to order a new boat. The performance of the new V10 is undeniable. Considering warrior hasn’t rated the 208 for the V10 and that’s really...

There's definitely differences in regional pricing. With that said, I think the Warrior 208 is in a weird spot also. Technically it's a 20ft class boat by the specs showing 20'4", but it also the...

I understood it the way you said it. I see 1-year old used Caymas DV20s and DV22s being listed in the $100k-$130k ball park. New, depending on options, your looking at $130-150k+ maybe tic less for...

My assumption of 8-10 mph difference was my assumption of the 300 V-8 vs the 400 V10. I guess I didn't realize the 208 is only rated for a 350. I assumed warrior had upped the power rating of their...
