Default My New Ride and a Big Thank You!

I would like to thank all of the guys who took great care of me while putting my new ride together! Kyle and Gerald Link at Lake Area Marine delivered a superior buying experience, as always. Bill and Gary Kenner at K2 Marine collaborated with me to put together this one-of-a-kind BlackJack 224 (these guys worked with me to incorporate some custom interior upgrades as requested by me), and Kevin Deselle at Sport Trail Trailers built a work of art for my boat to sit on top of. Customer service by all parties involved has been nothing less than superior. Definitely check these guys out.

The shocks were per my request and Bill put them in for me. As of now, this is the only 224 with shocks in it from the factory. I believe cables still come standard on the 224. The 256, however, comes standard with shocks. This boat also has the hardware, interior LED lighting, upholstery, dash panel switches, and leaning post all from the BlackJack 256 per my request and Bill was able to make it happen. It turned out very nice so maybe Bill will start offering these features as upgrades....or even standard. I'm curious to see what ends up happening

Beautiful boat. The shocks are awesome. Kyle retrofitted mine with them recently. Much better than cables. Congrats.
