20V color and option opinions

[BrownClown]

I posted awhile back about 20V pricing and have been busy. Unfortunately, we aren't going to get a boat this summer (due to newborn), but my plan is to order one in the fall for a spring delivery. I have gone through the online build and come up with colors that the whole family seems to like.
Deck-Pacific Blue
Hull-black
main panel-black
2nd main panel-black
Interior package-platinum
Accent vinyl-frost or pacific blue
Here's the question...has anyone seen a boat with this layout? I'm afraid the accent vinyl in pacific blue might give me a headache after awhile. It looks cool on the computer, but I'd like to get an idea of what it looks like in person. I intend to keep this boat for 10 years plus, so I want it to be great. I'd love to see pictures if anyone has some.

Here are the options that I think I want:
Speed set, seat height adjustment, shark eye nav lights, boat cover with pole, custom hull and deck color, tower billet mirror, E series tower with racks, fiberglass swim platform and Ipod integration. I'm not sure which audio option to choose; premium sound or tower of power?
Here are the options that I would like opinions on:
Extra pull up cleats, how much bigger is the XL bimini(small kids=shade=good),
Lab1 mentioned awhile back that the Stainless appearance package is crap, is dual battery necessary, transom remote sounds interesting but necessary? Our lakes in Arkansas are pretty clean; is the fresh water strainer a must, is the cooler that comes as an option crap?
Sorry this is so long, but I lurk on this board a few times a week and everyone seems great and I know I will get some great opinions.

Thanks!

Todd

i'm pretty sure chpthril have those colors on his 22ve

[larryueckert]

sorry chpthril for stealing your pictures from the gallery

[chpthril]

Like Larry said, you 'bout described my 22Ve

Fall order - Spring delivery.......last I heard, Tige was building in about 3 weeks so have your dealer check when you get close to pulling the trigger.

Option: Things are a changing, so dont be too hard set on what you see right no as options.

SS package - a must. I dont care who makes the plastic cupholders, they will dry out, become brittle, and crack in about 4-5yrs. Besides, the SS hardware and lift supports just look better

Cooler: the 20V comes STD with a built in cooler that drains to the bilge, the optional "soft sided cooler" is pretty cool and actually nice to have. We use one daily around the dealership You decide if it's worth the $$$ to you.

Extra cleat: great if you do any anchoring.

strainer: not sure if I would order it, but wouldn't ask them to remove it either.

Transom remote is nice to have if you hang out and swim or beach. Nice to work tunes with out getting into boat.

I thought Tige dropped the adjustable height seat pedestal? I may be wrong.

stereo: Cant go wrong with the WetSounds, so if you can budget it, go with the T of P. If not, get the tower pre-wired, makes the upgrade easier. Ipod Interface - yes.

I would highly recommend you consider ballast. You may not want/need it know, but most people find the want it either for boarding or surfing. If not, it can be a DIY for about $1200 and a long weekend.

Cant tell from my pics, but I have the blue accents in the interior. There is an 05 or 06 20V that rides my home lake on the weekdays that is as close to my boat as a 20 can get, sounds about like what you are looking at

So not get the top deck any other color than white. You will find that it get hotter the darker the color.

da I thought you were going to suggest candy corn colors he he

Adjustable verticle seat base and filter options 07 & 08 options. If you can get them both are nice.

I added two front cleats above the shark eyes looks good. I have rear stereo remote very nice to have.
Strainer is good for weedy lakes and eliminates need for fake a lake,
SS package would be great. I have plastic but once glue dries out stainless will go in.
I just added Wetsounsa P60's on the tower and I like them. I set the rower amp up so it can be turned off until I get the Wake Sounds equalizer.

If I could only get one option it would be the transom remote. That little beauty is the best thing since sliced bread---don't buy a boat with out it!!!!!!

If you can swing it fiscally, WetSounds are the JIMMY JAM!!! They're a bit pricey for sure, but they sound sooo good. I'm a cheap bastard and I don't regret my WS purchase at all.

My new boat (picking up Friday) will have 4 Dbot5 tower speakers & every option available.

What about a teak platform??? Bet you that option isn't on there.

Ops, you mean options that Tige offers.

he he he

da.bell,

No teak platform for me...The wood floors in my house are enough maintenance, I don't need one more thing to try and keep up.

Oh and what does "Ops" mean?

Is it for the military & should there be the word "Special" before it?

[BrownClown]

Chpthril,

Any chance you might have pics of your interior? Stern to bow and bow to stern?

Thanks!
