New Stabicraft 2350 Model

[Kiwi Canuck]

This is the new 2350 just released, I saw this model being built when I was at the Stabicraft factory back in March and I was sworn to secrecy and was not allowed to take any photos or talk about it until now.

Nice boat, and nice to see they are now building in Washington.

I personally can't stand them. To each their own though I guess. Good on them for making a success of it.

Can't beat their video marketing....

Is it just looks you dislike or have you ridden in one as well and didn't like it? Haven't had the chance to ride in one yet, would be curious

Strictly based on looks.

I love the concept and design and had a chance to jump around one at the boat show. My first impressions were that the metal work was really nice but the finishing and details left something to be desired. There wasn't as much storage as I would have expected and lots of small spaces were underutilized, although that's been one of my main gripes with most builders. The pontoon design adds a lot for safety but really cuts into deck space, my boat 18' has more deck space than the 22' on display.

Looks really nice as featured. But the whole thing is painted (powdercoated???) and has acres of EVA foam decking. Can't help but wonder what it will look like in 5 years once its gotten some scuffs and the EVA decking starts peeling around the edges...maybe you just trade it in after the lease expires!

This boat looks unreal... Waay out of my current budget. We got the 2050 last year (2013 model). I LOVE ours. Love the cab layout. Pontoons definitely cut into the beam width. The similar size hewes/thunderjet/kingfisher... has more deck space. It's got a super high freeboard which I love. Super safe for the kids. It pounds in chop over 3'... but it's super dry & feels incredibly safe. 11 years old, and it's in unreal shape. The 3 pontoons have seperate drain plugs. I've had an issue where the drain plugs haven't perfectly sealed, and one (or more) pontoon has got a bit of water in it. It didn't change the nature of the ride too much, but knowing this, I wouldn't be super comfortable with having a Stabi moored full-time. You can't bilge the pontoons, and no good way to know if they've taken on water without bringing it on land... my 2 cents.
