I've owned three new Sea Fox center consoles, 266/288 and currently own a 21 328 with twin 400 verado power. No complaints or major issues with any of them. Our 328 is definitely our favorite and as long as I'm physically capable of running it I will do so.
@@Anthony-pi6pfI don't remember all the details but you can Google "Sea Fox sues Sea Ox" . They threatened to hold Bryan up in court if he didn't give up the Sea Ox name.. Which has been around since before Sea Fox.
@@Anthony-pi6pfthey sued Sea Ox (now Pair Customs) after Brian Pair brought the brand back. Obviously the Sea Ox name had been around alot longer than Sea Fox. They tried to claim some copyright sh*t and say that people would confuse the brands and it would hurt them (which is laughable seeing as they’re a much higher quality semi custom builder). Pair bought the rights to the Sea Ox name from the original folks who still had the rights to the name. from what I recall there was some issue where the copyright had expired or something. So there was a loophole Sea Fox took advantage of. I believe the original owners could have renewed the copyright prior to selling it and he would have been good but it wasn’t done and he was unable to do so. Or something. Could have some of that wrong but that was the gist of it. Obviously a small builder doesn’t have the money to really go to court and fight against a big corporate builder so they settled and he changed the name to Pair Customs

I have fallen in love with the new 2024 design of sea fox. Very versatile. Bow is perfect for the family.
We couldn’t agree more.
Good to see Sea Fox stepping up their game in 2024!
Defiantly nice to see!
You forgot all about anchor storage and the head, very important for the ladies
is it just me or are most manufactures making the consoles/leaning post stations bigger and bigger reducing the stern deck space a ton...
Table capabilities as well
Do they still enjoy suing smaller boat builders?
Yes
What do you mean? never heard of this.

@@joshtavenner3073 thanks for that.
What kinda cool shades are those?
Is a Sea Keeper a possibility for the 328 or 288, without tearing things up?
We have to find out for you but our friends over at triseakeeper.com will have more info on that for you.
Would never give them a dime out of principal for what they pulled with Pair Customs/Sea Ox
Parents use to own a sea Fox. It was a piece of shit. Those hulls are junk. Basically the new Bayliner.
Boat need 2 dive doors
