I saw some other models starting threads out there so here is a thread for us 200SD owners. It helps to have others with the same ride as you to bounce things off of.

What is your thought on these? I think it would be nothing more than a novelty, but I think it would look pretty cool. Has anyone installed lights under their swim deck?

OK, Here is my issue, I store my 200 sundeck in my driveway. I back the boat up to my third stall so it is out of the way. My driveway is at enough of an incline that I am unable to raise the bow higher than the stern. Thus collecting water in the bow of the boat. She is covered with the snap on...

I had Marine Max winterize my boat at the end of the season last year. I have a coupon to "summerize" the boat in the spring, is this really neccessary? It looks like a bunch of checks and run the engine... Is this something I can just do myself with a engine muff? It doesn't mention closing...

Would it be possible to order arm rests from a new 240SD and put them on my 200SD? I love that option and would love to have them on my 200.
