Is that a 242 or 262...?? I assume a 262 given the tri-axle but who knows.
That is some paint job :shock:

I looked as best I could since I had to take that picture from the other side of the fence the other night. It was raining and they were closed. I am 95% sure its a 242 though

I think you are right...I don't see the bump in the stern of the cockpit cover indicating the rear facing sunpad.

Triple axle is a bit overkill on that boat - so is the paint job. What's up with the Vortec sticker on the hull? Can Phil Dill get to your boat quickly?

leftlane - I hope so. I made arrangements with Greg last week. He told me if they had it Monday, they would get to it and it would be ready for pickup this week. Who knows. I am giving them the benefit of the doubt, but I have low expectations.

Thats pretty awesome - I tend to enjoy the wild colors. I just can't seem to make myself take the plunge.

Yep, thats the place. There are several dealers in the metro area that I could work with, but its all a matter of convenience. I called Legend Marine and spoke to a guy there. He said all he needed to do was check with Volvo on something and would call me back later that day. I never heard back from him.

There is a dealer just north of my dealer that I probably should have tried. I figured I will give it one last shot. This time though, I made my expectations very clear up front. They agreed, so if they cannot live up to it, they know I wont be back.

Steve - I know Phildill isn't the cheapest place in town to have work done on your boat, but they have always taken care of me and I've had my share of issues. Most of them minor. If there is something you feel they are not addressing and you've brought it to their attention, I believe you can call their number and leave a message directly for Phil. Also, he's up there most days and I'm certian he would take the time to talk with you. Of course take your boat where you feel most comfortable, but just wanted to let you know that so far, they've taken care of me.
