Dear new V435 owners..... HATE YOU AND YOUR IPS TOO!!! 8)

I am so jealous!!! At least I have a bow thruster on the v378, but I want that V435's IPS so bad I can taste it.

I walked around in one at the Miami boat show. I envy you. Its the nicest under 50ft boat made. In fact nothing comes close to style and room until the 70ft range. The layout is perfect.

Oddly enough, that's where we first saw one too... I went to that show expecting to buy a Regal 42 or 46 and we loved the interior on those boats and even water tested the 46 but we just couldn't fall in love with the styling. The V435 was literally right next to the Regal and we stepped over and fell in love. The ONE thing I wish Four Winns offered was twin beds and more than 5'8" of head to toe mattress length. Ultimately we compromised on those two items. The rest of the boat is great

Well unless you're hosing guests for a week the "family room" out back is absolutely an amazing idea. All the other designs are so closed off and claustrophobic. The sea ray is like a dungeon.

Finally got some pictures of the build uploaded to photobucket. See the link below

http://s1332.photobucket.com/user/billcruise/slideshow/

The hardtop is supposed to be installed Friday and the boat goes into the 'pond' and is water tested next Monday. Ships from Four Winns a week from Friday or the following Monday. Getting very excited!

Went to see the boat at the factory in Cadillac for the final time last Wednesday and uploaded more pictures

http://s1332.photobucket.com/user/billcruise/slideshow/

As you can see the boat was basically done with mainly punch list items to work out. This morning the boat shipped from Cadillac and is headed to Skipperbuds to have the bottom paint and electronics installed. Splash at Norris Lake is a week from today!

We're over at Shanghai Marina. If you're ever over that way, you are welcome to look us up.

No problem will do. I know we are going down on the 27th and well bi there until the 3rd cause the Admrial has to work the 4th. We will be going to Sequoyah for fire on the water on the 28th.
