A little more about the new 2012 H200...

I'm really liking the new design!

Nice looking boat and actually a pretty good video about boating.

Great video by the designer for Four Winns and the new H200.

Personally, I love the new style...

Looks way too angular for my tastes. Color and shape looks more like Cobalt than FW.

Good video, and there are some nice new details that I like (especially the removable bow cushions vs. the previous hinged ones). Overall, I still prefer the previous styling (and platform).

I just saw a new 200SS it was designed just exactly as my 2007, the only difference was the white interior had pearl in it, the layout and cubby spaces were exactly the same, I like mine, and I like the 2011.

Love the new design. Saw my old house in that video. You guys would not believe the huge bass and Pike I used to pull out of what is now the Four Wins Test Center and where you see this boat tied to the dock while Frenchy is speaking. Used to be a marina before FW bought it and we used to fish off the docks daily growing up. I have a 44" Pike mounted that I pulled through the ice right there when I was 7.

One thing I like/liked about the SL series was the gel coat. I was told it was molded in the same shop as the Vista line up. I felt like it has a superior gel coat compared to our H series gel coat. Anyone else notice this?

+1 It looks so different than my H220SS I definitely like mine more than that one.

Not crazy about the "angularity" if that's a proper word to describe the shape. Would really like to see one in person though.

I agree. It looks very "stand up" and utilitarian to my eye...

Kind of like this Mercedes CLS representing the old H:

And this Ford 500 representing the new H:
