      As do mine. Actually its my wife that really loves the playpen. She prefers to sit up front and having had both styles of boat, she prefers the playpen. I don't really care one way or the other. In our boat the two side bow cushions are a bit of a pain to open up. But they are huge. We store items we seldom need to get at. Tubes for example. The very front cushion I think is supposed to be an anchor locker. That is what we use it for. The thing about these three lockers is they aren't at all water resistant and you can guarantee to get LOTS of water over the bow in anything more than glass water. So no sleeping bags in those lockers.

          Just spotted this bad boy at the Shuswap Shark Shack. Says Captains Village Marina. This thing dwarfs the G23.

                Johnnie, wow a boat from captains village without a snap cover, mind blown. They must be catching on...

                Unstuck the front compartment in the rzx is the perfect place to wedge in 300lbs in lead.

                  Sorry. I’m an anti-leadite.

                  I’m having a hard enough time keeping water out of the bow as it is. You guys must all have perminent glass water.

                    Is this a test drive for someone or you just getting on the water? Don't worry I'll custom order one [emoji12]

                      If it makes you feel any better it’s actually steal

                      We get a bit of spray but certainly not a lot. Only time it gets that wet is when a noob forgets how to drive.

                        We get wet in the 2018 a lot too. She’s not a super dry boat.

                          I know it's steel. It was more a Seinfeld play on words. Anyone pick up on that one?
                          Well we can keep it dry during normal surf maneuvers. The real issue is spray from chop, at any speed, any ballast setting. It's better when going with the wind, but at some point you have to turn around. Then everyone gets wet.

                          The very low seat height and great visibility of the low bow makes it worth it to me.

                            SO I rode a ZX5 tonight, Meredith Marina on Lake Winnipesauke just had it delivered today, we tested it tonight with Stock Ballast and PNP. Pretty impressive wave with a ton of push. It is compatible to my 2018 RZX3 with PNP. Working on posting a video...(If I can figure out how)

                                Looks rather steep but it’s clean!
