Who owns one around Lafayette? They are really cool looking rigs from the videos and build quality that I can see.
I did price a Vantage 2 months ago, never saw one in person, but talked to Kevin Fenn and thought about flying to Florida, but decided to buy my 3rd Shearwater, this one with a 250 SHO - different critters, I know.

I own the first one that left the shop that doesn't belong to an owner of ECC. The fuel tank isn't removeable, but they could probably do that if you want. I will say that it is the best boat purchase I have ever made. I have a 90 Honda on mine, cruise in the 30's, pole in less than 9" and takes the chop like a dream.

If you are in the market, I would definitely check them out. The Vantage is one awesome ride!!! My customers love it!!
