Nice boat, but like many... including Mercury their customer base is getting less and less due to cost!

Confirmed with Dean, pricing is in the $140k range. W/300R’s
The 28 OBX is just under $180k, so cant see the 26 besting that pricing.

Gorgeous!
I need to see it in person to pass judgment though.
I am a huge fan of that size and style of rig.
The stairs to the bow are huge.
Need to see the cuddy too.
The smaller twin O/Bs are a tough sell due to cost. IMO.
Too close to a 28/30 but:
You could tow a 26' behind most mini vans, meaning no need for a dedicated tow pigg.
Easier to handle on trailer, around dock.
Better on gas.
Faster per HP, etc, etc.
Would take good marketing and sales people to pedal it but I like the theory and have wanted to bring a similar rig to market for yrs.
Congrats to Checkmate for having the stones to try something different.
Remember too, that passes as a second home and its interest can be written off
Love it.
