Sure thing, it's my pleasure. I will review many more vessels, so, if you haven't already, please subscribe to the channel and share the content with your friends as well, I would really appreciate it. It is a 2024 model. I really like this one. Usually, it comes with a 115HP, so 150HP will get this boat flyin'!!! :) The 18 footer is what I call the sweet spot. It's very easy to take care of, it is fast, you can launch it by yourself, you can also take it offshore. Needless to say, Yamaha makes the best outboards! They are bullet proof and more reliable than anything else out there! Cheers!

If you enjoying fishing, then check out my latest video where I review a Hybrid boat and it's lot cheaper!

Thanks for your feedback. There is actually a rap around curtain in the bathroom that will keep everything dry except the toilet seat. So, there won't be any need to wipe everything off after taking a shower which can be super annoying! Actually, there is a table that raises up in the v berth and you can remove that table too if you wish so that you can have plenty of floor space. To see exactly what I am referring to, just go to cutwaterboats.com , then click on "Models" and select C-288 C from the drop down menu, please. You will find bunch of pictures in the Gallery section, just keep clicking the right > arrow key to see them all. This is truly a great boat, and if you are a little handy, you can do all the maintenance yourself, too! If you haven't already, please Subscribe to the channel, I would appreciate your feedback when I review another type of vessel. STAY TUNED and turn on the bell notification! -:)

Thanks for sharing your feedback and I agree. Hopefully, the manufacturer will take them into account and make the necessary improvements in next year's model.

It's about $320,000 but if you want a fully loaded one with all the bells and whistle, then you are looking at $360,000. It's reasonable, relatively speaking.

If you wanna justify the price of this boat, just think about having a house on the water, let's say in the Keys. Such a house would cost you at least $1.5 million, not to mention taxes, INSURANCE (flood, wind, homeowner), maintenance etc... and chances are you would only spend few weeks per year, if that much in your summer house and you would still NEED A BOAT! -:) This particular vessel is trail-able so you could take it anywhere you want, spend days on the water, enjoy your private deck in the back and haul it back to your home base when you are done.

@@floridaoutdooradventures8981 then to dock it? What does that run in a reasonable location. Let’s say mid east coast /west coast? Or even the Panhandle? This IS a very nice boat.

@@budhorstmeyer9336 I am not familiar with the Panhandle area but I know South Miami where I reside. If you can secure a dock space (which provides water, electricity and sewage connection) in a marina run by the county (NOT PRIVATELY), up to 30 feet, in the area where I live, it's $485 a month. But, there is a 4 years waiting list!! -:( You just need to do some research. It's doable, and if you love being on the water like I do, then I think we should also try to do it before we die. We live once, right?

Thanks for watching!

@@floridaoutdooradventures8981 👍👍

That wasn't me. It would be cool to own the Dauntless though. Boston Whaler boats are absolutely fantastic!!!

Great feedback, thank you.

Thanks for the feedback. I prefer not to talk as I believe this format (with text and arrows) is easier to follow which you can also watch without even turning the volume up. That said, I also like to add nice soundtrack which makes the video more appealing, I believe. I would appreciate if you share this content in all your social media channels and subscribe to the channel for more such content.

Boat prices are crazy HIGH!!!

I know. I was wondering about that, too... LOL.

It's not only the price of the boat. One should also consider the maintenance and storage cost before committing to one. That said, I guess everything is relative in life. If you can afford one, then why not? We only have one life to live...

Thank you David. I appreciate the input. 👍

This one seems to be more luxurious and better equipped than the ranger tug. Still my Dream Boat because it's like the Jack of all trades-:)... Maybe one day....

Didn't know. Thanks for your feedback. I will be reviewing many more boats, would always appreciate your feedback, so please stay tuned.

Thanks for your feedback. Good point! It would be nice if there was an ice maker instead. Ice is a must regardless whether one is fishing or not. By the way, my next video is going to be about a totally different kind of boat. If you haven't already, please subscribe so that you won't miss out. Thanks again for watching and your valuable input. Cheers!

THIS comment is how you tell the WHOLE WORLD that you have the intellectual capacity of a potato! Firstly, just because a French company bought Robalo, doesn't mean they are going to chanfe the manufacturing. Secondly, Beneteau, Dufour, Amel, Jeanneau, Pogo, Fora....are all LEGENDARY for fit, finish, design and quality. Airbus has half a century of producing some of the best airliners in history. The Rafale and Mirage series fighter jets are ENORMOUSLY successful. So, essentially, you're just telling the world that you don't have a damned clue what you're talking about!

@@SaltyPirate71 french is shit sorry that I hurt you , Robalo is now shit

He’s right… the French suck.

Thanks for your feedback. I will be reviewing many more vessels. Your opinion and feedback are always welcome.

Thanks for your great feedback. If I may ask, do you keep yours on the water? Is it easy to maintain? Have you had any issues with it so far? Thanks again.

Just ordered for 205k w trailer. Originally was going to get the cutwater c242 but really wanted the 300hp engine and nicer helm. 15k diff but what the hell. Only thing I don't like about the Solaris is the red accent and under water lighting

I am not sure how much it is with stabilizers but the price of this particular boat is revealed in the video. Also, another reason I like Robalo so much is because there is no wood on this boat and the build quality is top notch! I would appreciate it if you could share this video with family and friends and thanks.

Think you mean ballpark. 👍

$211,697 was the show price. It was discount by $18,000.

It's not my boat.

Stop voting democrat 😂

​@@birdmandaddy1234Google how much dhumph increased the national debt....... While you're at it just look at all the presidents.

Bub ….. you turning green with envy. Take control of your life , any man can do whatever he wants in this world ….. longs you got the drive. And ain’t a liberal.

So sad -:( I am so sorry to hear that. Cigarette boat is definitely a legend and your friend made a difference by creating this amazing machine!

They were designed to take a lot of extra weight in the front right?

@@nospoon4799 I believe so. There is a decent cabin up front, could bring used as storage.

That’s the way she rolls Bub. It’s a risky business as they say.

$300,000 was the price at the boat show.

Thank you, beautiful boat!

@@bilicki44 If you haven't already, please subscribe to the channel, I will be reviewing many more vessels...

I agree. Multi use... -:)

Yes, it's not cheap, that's for sure.

It's only $625K with the big 400 motors

@@texasrob2782 I LOVE THOSE MERCS!!!

Whoever wins the lottery! -:)

@@floridaoutdooradventures8981 Amen! Although I watch these videos and dream. A person would literally have to have millions to upkeep, fuel, dock, and maintain such a beautiful boat..

@@silverhorder1969 Very good point. It will cost a fortune to maintain such a nice boat. Nothing wrong about dreaming, I also do the same -:). It's interesting to see how these vessels are designed. That's why I like to do these video and thanks for watching.

Yes indeed!

I agree. But what is so surprising is that there are SO MANY boat manufacturers. You would think more would go out o f business… But instead, they manage to stick around and continue to increase prices. Relatively speaking, boat prices are lower in Europe comparing to the United States and I am not sure why…

I agree! These boats are insanely expansive!!! There is also insurance and MAINTENANCE cost! Boating is definitely an expansive hobby…

Yup agree. Ridiculous

You are welcome to start a boat building company, and sell yours for 46,000 good luck.

This is the cheaper version. Stay tuned for the EXPANSIVE one! LOL....

That may be an option. The interior feels very premium and very welcoming.
