Pulsare 2400 BRX missing one thing

The Pulsare 2400 BRX is missing one thing that I feel is becoming a 'must-have' for a boat this size. The non-performance boats have them, and it won't be long before the performance manufacturers start adding this option.

The boat should have an enclosed head built into the port side console. A head in the port consol plus a good bimini-top setup would make this an all day boat for those that trailer boat.

Kip or Coop, is a head in the plans for the 2400 BRX?

You guys are crazy, I think it looks amazing. I wouldnt want a toilet or a bimini top. Just the thought of a full toilet near my feet makes me sick, and I dont like how Bimini tops look and they get in the way.

But thats just my opinion, so maybe the pooper and the top could be offered as options??
 
I was thinking about putting snaps over the screws that hold the cooler area in and have a snap-on sunbrella or vinyl cover. I have a new yellow/silver/black 24 BRX coming that will be in the Miami show. It has the wakeboard tower with a bimini top coming off it. You gotta have a top in Florida.
 
Wildman, any of your customers ask about a small head in the 24' boat yet?
 
It's not 'the boat' that needs a head, it's the people on the boat. I'm thinking of moving off the lake, and if I do, then I'll be buying a 22'-24' boat that has a built-in head so I can stay on the water all day long with my family.
 
Head...

I would be interested to see a design for that...

My concern would be "head room" (no pun intented), as outboard Checks are not a very deep boat to begin with.

Boomer, I went to the Hartford show as well. I was suprised at the turnout, lots of people.

Many of the vendors that I spoke to were pleased as well.

When I talked to Kip a few years ago about the 24 long deck, he said he would put a potti in it. As far as a console for the open bows, I think it is a great idea. Not for me but for the wife!!!! Pottis are essential for women, especially if you want to boat early or late in the season!! I took the little mate out the first weekend of November this past fall. Water was 49*, I got in up to the nut sack, well just below the sack, but there is NO WAY IN HELL my wife would have dunked to relieve herself in the water!!!!! I have no problem at all in emptying the head in my Formula, I actually disconnected the pump out for it so I can take it out to empty it and clean it...
 
my 2400 long deck has a porta pot , and if it's still around this summer it will get some kind of a top , even if just an anchor shade . i've already had 2 spots of skin cancer cut off my shoulders. my 25 convincor as well as my 28 convincor both had custom enclosures.

I ordered a bimini and full enclosure for the Formula, as you well know Pops, and I think it is a great investment! Maybe because I am aging, but comfort comes before thinking you are cool at times!!!!

it is a great investment . i can't tell you how many rainy days we sat under a top and killed brain cells . going to have a one year old grand daughter around this summer . if she's not having a good time , nobody will have a good time.
 
I won't have the yellow one until the Miami show, but it will be just like the red one, but yellow everywhere you see the red. It will also have the tower and bimini top. Trailer will also have mag wheels. Go here:

1. Ice White
2. Black
3. Silver flake
