I like it. More room like the older hulls like mine. I still don't feel the need to get newer.

I would have to agree. Upgrading to a newer boat would not get me much more than a $1,000+ payment. Currently have none. So for us it is not even a question. But do like the looks of the new designs.

but of course at the boat show, I hear about a SWEET deal on THE 310 for me. It's a 2007 with Twin 320s, Generator, air conditioning (why on a bow rider?), and ALL of the toys. Unbeatable price....Let's see how the spring goes...

You are speaking of Harold's old personal boat...the red one he has been trying to sell now for three or four years?

I think he may be referring to the new 2007 blue listing that just went on the market. The red 2007 only has a single 8.1 in it, and you are right, it has been listed forever..... The price seems pretty good at $80K, especially with only 68 hours on it. But, it is has to be way under powered for a boat that size. The blue one with the twins and generator has a asking price of $97K, but also has 250 hrs on it.

Both were the photo boats in the brochure that year. Red one is nice, but like said, WAY underpowered. That's why it's still there. The blue one is the one with twins. Nice boat, but $97K is still to much $.

Harold has never been known to give amazing deals to the consumer. Even his parts are through the roof. Some things have been sitting around for years and prices stay they same.

Ah, it's frenchy's boat from the video. I really don't understand why they opted for the seat option instead of the wet bar option for the "show boat". If you don't read the fine print you can be inclined to think it's not available as all other boats that size have it standard. That can be a game changer for many people.
