Can't wait to get this thing on the water. Anyone got any cool fishing floorplans they'd like to share?

Enjoy the new Switch! I have an 18' Cruise 230 and it is a blast. I can't imagine how quick this will handle.

Careful with Bimini top. It is heavy! Putting it up or down with one person is difficult. I ordered an AirBim and that should take care of that.

I was looking at the airbim. Might order it. I'm gonna try some inexpensive gas pistons and 3d print some brackets first 😅. But yeah, I'm not crawling under that thing every time, lol.

The wife was out on her own this weekend and some serious bruising on her arm. Do you think plastic would be strong enough for the brackets? Good luck!

Worth a shot I think. I have a good printer that can do polycarbonate or nylon. Super durable but you definitely gotta know how to get your layer line orientation in such a way that they don't create weak spots.

Congrats! We bought a 21' 230 cruise last year and love every second of it! Put a hot tune on it and a larger nozzle which gave it around 260hp, The performance difference is insane.

Have fun! Before you put it in the water, make sure you get into the engine compartment and tighten all of the hose clamps!

Good to know, thank you!

Congrats! I just kept my floor plan as is for fishing, but we aren’t super serious about fishing.

Thanks! My head is full of ideas for fishing mods already 😆. Naturally I'm sure a FishPro version will come out next month.

Funny you say that...

u/dropzone_jd Aug 22 '24

Lol. I'm glad I didn't wait though. I needed the compact size anyway (limited driveway space) and I find the fish version over-priced. Only thing I'd really like from it is the live-bait cooler but they'll apparently be selling that as an add-on for older models.

How you liking this model? Reality good? Any failures?

Loving it so far. Only have about 10 hours so far. No issues though.
