I wouldn't have surprised me,if this poker run wasn't WAS what sold you on buying this awsome. Boat. I really love the set up,wrap and everything you guys did on your current purchase!!! TOTALLY LOVE IT GUYS.
My brother and I have been searching for something the two of us could take out when we aren't running a full crew on our Freeman 42. What stopped us from buying this boat is the small cockpit area. The Costa design team should have put the livewells over top of where the transom hatches are located. Losing that foot or so made the cockpit too cramped in our opinion. Other than that, it's a well built boat.
thanks! can you review a large cat cc....like the 42 Freeman LR .... you are in Florida and so are they! lol, common main...please? I dig the channel, by the way, nice work!
I’m not sure if you have done a review of the Hammercat 35 yet. If you do get a chance, I’d like to know what you think of it. Thanks for the content 😘
The first of the two boats had a trolling motor mount between the engines. I would like to see more coverage of dual trolling motors in action. Spot lock the front and back of the boat? That would be sick. With tide ripping offshore sometimes one just won't get the job done.
What kind of background does this builder have? What is his story? This would make a perfect great lakes boat. Bass in lake st.clair or salmon in lake Michigan. Very nice...
I assume this was filmed before you picked up this boat, as you say that you are thinking things but already own the Costa Cat which is the name after the split of Cayo? Question, why so much water in the bilge and pushing up through the drain of the livewell?
I saw you did a Mahi trip on this boat as a youtube short. can you post that as a normal youtube video. I'd love to see this boat running in 2-4ft seas or at least 1-3
He say’s in the video they were in 3-4-5-6 footers. Like you said correctly this wasn’t even 1-3 feet. He needs to put someone else in charge of the sea conditions report. CCO has great content and videos but the stated conditions they are running in is categorically false.
I’m retired, I make combined with my wife’s retirement , 180k take home. Even with this income 30% down payment, monthly payments, insurance, storage fee and maintenance, it’s cheaper for me to charter a a boat 2 or 3 times a month then going into debt with todays boat prices. If you’re young and making 300k a year. Good for you. But I’m guessing most people aren’t. But… I’d still like a ride in one to make an opinion .
Very nice looking cat and from your video a very smooth, dry ride. How does it compare as far as ride and price to the TwinVee 260 (although the Costa has twice the ponies behind it)?
twin vee 260 was a great boat, they dont make it anymore and are currently re working it into a 260 GFX, i currently own a 28 GFX and love it. Id spend the extra 25k to get the 28 if you have the space for it
@@michiganengineer8621 I live on a canal with an 8 foot bridge during peak summer tides so i was worried the 28 wouldnt fit but Twin Vee lowered my ttop by 2 inches at the factory and youd never notice. Great company to work with honestly. Glad i can get up in the morning look out my windows and see my boat on a lift behind the house
I know it needs to be there, but that crossbar over the helm is just waiting to knock out someone's teeth if they're not paying attention. Very dangerous !
3-4-5-6 footers? That looks like 1-2 feet at most. You definitely don’t surf, and have an incredibly bad read on sea conditions. This is one thing that CCO needs to correct ASAP. The videos are great except for grossly overstating just about every sea condition they are in.
