Today, I saw the new boat for the first time. She was indoors in the "rigging shed" and we are on schedule for a March 15th delivery. Which will be immediately followed by a shakedown cruise!

Not much to look at at this point, but here are some pics:

I'd say that was plenty to look at! She's a beauty. If I were you I wouldn't be getting much sleep between now and the 15th...
 
wow.....congrats.
 
Not much to look at...that has to be understatment of the year....She's gorgeous.....congratulations.....I sure hope you make it to BIH....I'd love to get a closer look.... :thumbsup:

keep the pics coming....
 
She's a bute :thumbsup: Did you get to take some of the plastic off? That would have been better than Christmas!
 
I just noticed the Bimin top...it looks similar to the top I saw at the Boat Show on a 340DA....I like the design... :thumbsup:
 
Wow, what an awesome boat. I was on a new 440 sedan in Charleston a month or so ago, and it was for me the most beautiful boat I've been on.
It must be the dream of a lifetime. Congratulations.

Thanks guys... and this is a big deal for me... the culmination of a lifelong dream. And I do think this boat is beautiful. One of the first pieces of advice I got on CSR was "buy what makes you smile". Anyway, I appreciate your enthusiasm. As long as you're interested, I'll keep the pics coming. Thanks again!
 
Some assembly required.

Just kidding. Beautiful Boat.
 
There is a 44 here in CT at the local dealer. It is a beautiful boat!

Went up on the bridge just to sit behind the wheel, time stood still for those few seconds!

If I bought what made me smile, I'd be divorced!

Good Luck with her!!!!

Oh, some pics of them diesel would be nice!
 
Awesome looking boat.... :thumbsup: :thumbsup: oops excuse me...I had to wipe the drool of of my keyboard :grin: :grin: It has my favorite color combination.

When we went to the boat show this year I told Paige remember Frank's advise is buy as much boat as you can get your wallet around. I just had her come in and look at the pictures of the boat, she looked at me with this puzzeled face...I said what? She said looks like you need a bigger wallet. :smt043 At least she listens. :thumbsup: Congratulations again, I bet you felt like a king today as you pulled into the dealer.

Wesley- speaking of the Admiral... I gave her a complete Power Point presentation on the benefits of this boat over our previous boat and a detailed financial overview. Luckilly, I'm in marketing so Power Point is a second language for me.

Obviously, she said yes!
 
Prodigalson....care to "share" that PPT.....you never know.... :grin:
