Beautiful exterior... seriously hawt!

No comment on the Nautique interiors.

$68K for a used boat with 235 hours on it? Skip.

Where does that stadium seating go if you don't want to use it? Do you just put it in a storage area?

Great looking boat by the way.

N3 boat works can put some sick rides together for sure.

Nice looking boat, but never been a fan of the color matched tower speakers. Too flashy, IMO. They should almost always be black.

Hmmm I dunno, I like it but I think I'd like it more if the blue was dark green.

The stadium seat stores in the starboard rear locker.

^^^ I played around with one at the boat show last year... if I remember correctly the seats all fold up and swivel around back to the normal u-shape... like a swiss army knife.

Does everybody remember that Chrysler/Dodge minivan that used to advertise the captains chairs that could fold all the way down beneath the floor? Cool concept, but in order to get foldable seats they had to really skimp on the size and comfort... they were aweful to sit in.

The Nautique seats remind me a little of those Chrysler minivan seats... awesome concept to have more rear facing seats, but in order to gain that flexibility, the seats themselves look a bit skimpy. Just look at the seat backs along the gunnels... not much padding there.

As stated above, the exterior of this boat is just sick. If the price wasn't so high on these, I would have looked more seriously at them when I was shopping.

That's a sick boat and that is a great price for a 230 with the zr6 motor.

You do have a storage area in the boat for that seat.

The stadium seat on the 210 turns around and forms the wraparound but on the 230-236 it stores away in the locker next to the engine compartment.It also has a fold out pad that fills in the walkthru so you have a full sun lounge pad.

Nice boat but that trailer looks goofy to me. Looks like the boat is almost a foot above the trailer??? I like my lowrider trailer (Zieman - out of business). The boat sits about an inch above the frame of the trailer. The prop is only about 4" above the ground. My 5'2" wife can walk up and look right inside the boat while it's on the trailer. When we were looking at Malibu's on Extreme trailers she looked straight at the rub rail.

mike, the boat is so tall on the trailer because it is so wide. it doesn't fit between the fenders so it actually has to go on top of them. the width is also why it doesn't have the guide on poles, instead using the carpeted guides.
