Has anyone seen this yet?

It seems MC is getting more and more into the higher-end boats.

I have seen some press information on that boat. Looks like Mastercraft is reaching out into other markets. They have a number of boats now listed in the yacht category now.

I thought they were revealing it a few days ago? No one got pics yet?

flixmaster, care to post the info up or is it readily available from the 300 website? Very Happy

It was just a graphic with the same website logo. I think it said something about them having it at a boat show.

It will make its debut at the Miami Boat Show.

i think it looks awesome, but fear for combination of a formula/donzi price range.

Nice boat, but my concern is that hull design. I don't know the test results, but by looking at that hull, she isn't set up for serious waves. I wonder how it handles. Looks nice though. I'd rock it if it was given to me. But for the price, I can get better.

I wonder if it will have a canvas option to enclose the cockpit for bad weather.... looks much to opened up to facilitate this.

Pics from the other site

not worth 300k

Not a bad looking boat at all. Strange seeing Mastercraft go into a whooooole different game, but pretty cool that they are expanding their market. They are going in the right direction, IMO, with the new boats they are making.

I didn't know the X-80 was such a big hit there. They should do fairly well with the new yachts then.

interesting that they are offering a vw-sourced turbo diesel for an engine, and have seen it in their ski boats...

sandm, its been available for a while, but is an expensive upgrade.

now, relatively speaking, its a fairly well priced upgrade on these big boats when taking into account the increased reliability and fuel savings.

It really is time one of the big tow boat manufacturers got stuck into a new engine... there's only so much you can do with a 5.7 V8 block that's been around longer than most wakeboarders have been alive! Laughing

The one thing that sucks about diesel engines is how much stuff they would put into our lakes and waterways. So much soot and other crap that would probably create a massacre is every big boat manufacturer had it in all their boats.

whoa!

Like the wood, interior, and dash.... not sure about a pickle fork on a cruiser though.
