Just upgraded from a 2005 210 Horizon to a 2003 268 Vista last October.
Really loving the new boat. Been thru some minor fixes. Boat sat for a few years so just getting the bugs worked out. Still just so much fun.

Yes on the AC and genset. Those two options is what really sold me on the boat. Aside from being a four winns

Thanks for all the kind words.
Even though I have used the boat all winter. Yes even in the pouring down rain and the 20* temps. :shock: I love this thing. What I really am looking forward to is the SUN!!!!! I want the top off and the sun beating on me.

COME ON SUMMER!!!!!
