I heard he was looking to stretch that thing because the show wouldnt let him buy a new boat.

Huh! he cant sell the boat to buy a new one, but Paul can do the rent a boat program every other show? hmmmm smells fishy

The entire show is fishy but Dave's boat seems to run nice and flat. Seems like a nice step up from the 35's...

Exactly right - he will sell it to some fanboy for twice what it is worth...he just did a lot of work to it too.
He's building a 44 CB.

I think the shows feeling was that the boat is iconic to the show.

IMO the target audience has no clue...as long as the boat is black they won't know the difference.

You are 100% correct.....90% of the audience won't even notice

He posted on another forum last week that he was probably going to sell next winter and was looking at 45' Dixon or 44' Calvin as a replacement.
He and Sandro were at the Bos Boat Show this past weekend, when we walked by he was mobbed with people and we never made it back around to that end of the room. Otherwise I would've stopped in and asked him what he was thinking about building....

Even though I really dislike Dave as a person. Good for him if he gets rid of that thing. I really hope no forum members get snookered into buying it.

Biggest thing holding me back is free dockage. the Parker fits at my dock. A Downeast wouldn't.

That's a new one. A 25 DE won't fit where a 25 Parker will?

Pretty sure when Elmar pulls the trigger on a DE. It won't be 25ft
Id's bet he winds up 35+
