That's right! I don't want to get BigBlock all wound up again. :lol:

Wound up :-) I'm all good. What did I get would up on?
That looks cool.
It's called research and development and warranty boys. That's the cost.
And a $600 flag now made in China.lol
The flag is the one and only thing the factory will throw in for free...if you ask.

A few more from today...

I was surprised to see that they do the gelcoat this early. I just figured it would happen later. Still can't believe they expect to have the boat done by the middle of next week!

I was only kidding, and referring to your replies about old engines in new boats.

All good.They using the old trailer also? Not that it has any miles on it. I would ask for new tires anyways. Just kidding. So cool to see pictures like this as it comes together.

Haha, yeah, I'm sure the dealer is holding on to the trailer and awaiting the second boat. This dealer's trailers made by a local place just up north from me, Phoenix Trailers, and they are pretty nice. I'm fairly certain that it won't burst into flames any time soon.

I think those used to be made in Texas.

They even took it out to the lake, which I guess they don't normally do for smaller boats. Apparently it will be a CS22, not a CS2 like I was originally told.

Last one...you can kind of see the 50th anniversary badge on the back. They also appear to have added the cockpit tonneau cover, which isn't something I requested!

That's really cool to have a timeline of pics of your boat being built start to finish. CS22 Special! One of a kind for sure.

You should ask what they think about being bought and what the word is over there...

That's badtothabone Notstock.
It's very interesting to see how it all comes together. And that's your boat on the water? I just wonder if that's a final test run or if they take the lid back off for more tweaking? Either way it's fascinating to see the time line and what they can do in a week or so.

And I wonder what the guy is doing on his laptop? Is there a port under the dash?

Notstock, do you know if the Bimini on your new cs22 is the EZ fold Bimini? It's a different design than mine. I had never heard of that until Tuscany mentioned it.
