Randy, it will be interesting to see the speed differance between the 2400 and the BRX. I'm sure the BRX is a little heavier w/ the innerliner.

Awsome boat...you should be able to sell alot of those in FL!

Slap a couple big OHIO STATE BUCKEYE decals on the sides and it would be the perfect boat...................

wow - looks like they got that one down - looks awesome. my only complaint is the hydraulic lines for the steering. could they not run them down from the top of the splashwell - it would look so much neater.

love the graphics and use of gel in the front compartments - very easy to clean and no stink from moldy carpet. very well done.

In the middle of the splashwell just makes them in the way of people sitting on the back and tripping over them getting in the boat.

That is one nice looking ride. Fit and finish looks tight. Graphics are kickin. Keep them coming Checkmate.

Wildman, your making me think I want a loan for a new boat. Now can you convince my wife?

That looks more like a Checkmate rigged at the factory.

Ran the boat today. After breakin, it ran 72.8 mph. No chinewalk what soever. I could turn it full lock and it never lost bite. Handles awesome!
