The wait if over guys! Here is one pic for now. I will post plenty more later.

2005 ZT-280 with a 525 efi XR drive, 100 hours, original owner, immaculate condition. It's been right under our noses here in MN the whole time. Right off I'd like to thank everyone who helped along the way. Not the best pics from my iPod but my wife makes up for it

:pfor the ones who are thinking it, i'll say it for ya.......IT'S ABOUT TIME! the owner had the windshield fusion coated. he had billet aluminum step pads made and had those fusion coated as well. i really didn't care for the windshield in the pics at first but in person it is really nice. the v birth, potty and entire cuddy for that matter have never been used. he used the potty for a glove box for paperwork:) boat only sat overnight three times for an annual casino night. so cockpit cover was only used three times. came with full cover, $400 in merc manuals, a set of new spark plugs, a new water pump kit, a new merc oil filter, McGard locks for all wheels, tongue, prop and outdrive. he also threw in the anchor, two nice stainless steel sand stakes with ropes, two fenders, a nice homemade ladder for climbing through the hatch which my 5' flat wife will like. the trailer has a power wench and jack.......sweet! he even included the wire harness from his truck! bla bla bla !!! im going out to the garage to drool now :thumb:
 
Boat looks great, get out there and break in the "stabbin cabin", if ya didnt already that is.
 
Coincidence her toe nails match the boat highlights? Hope ya broke in the cuddy properly, pics of wife during optional... ;)
 
I was starting to wonder if you were ever going to buy a boat.

Your patience obviously paid off. What a beautiful boat.
I love the 525 EFI motor as well. Are those the stock pipes?
Good luck and enjoy. The ZT’s are a great line.

Thanks guys! We are very excited and hopefully now people in our area will see what checkmate is all about. No mates to speak of. These guys don't know what there missin! As far as the cuddy goes, it's still new. And the nails were painted blue the day after we put a down payment on it! She loves blue! Hey at least it's not pink:poke: right Keith?:p
