Well it only took two months from selling my scarab 22, and buying another boat, SOX's 253 Convincor. After reading a lot on this forum, I knew I wanted a 'Mate. Just looking over the boat at the quality and craftsmanship, I can see why so many guys have multiple 'Mates. And to add, I could not have asked for a better seller in SOX's. Now just hoping the weather is great this 4th of July weekend to enjoy this beautiful boat.
