The 22 ftr is supposedly going to be revealed at the NW boat show this coming weekend. Definitely similar to the Ranger 6 series which I guess you can expect. All of the Execs are former Ranger heads and supposedly 80 of the 100 or so employees are former Ranger staff. Go figure, since they're located in Flippen Arkansas. That's not a big town, its pretty obvious there plan was poach folks from Ranger. They have a few neat design ideas such as a pressurized live-well system to get rid of sloshing water and they come with pretty good features standard like air-wave pedestals, a recessed TM pedal in the bow, and a stow away boarding ladder that has a light on the dash when it's deploy'd. I couldn't tell if the rear filpp'n deck was removable from the photos I've seen. I do know it houses 8 or 10 planno's that are built into the bottom of it. They also have a different paint process that post applied after the gelcoat different from other manufactures, I'm sure it's good but time will tell. Not sure what to think about the dash. Looks like you'll be forced to flush-mount the electronics as there's no space to mount them any other way. It appears however there's enough room to flush mount a 16 incher so though. It'll be interesting to see how they perform and fish. One thing I noticed from all of the photo's of it running through the water is the spray is coming off at the windshield so it doesn't appear they'll "air-out" real well but that should help keep the bow planted the ride good, of course at the cost of speed. just my observations over the past few days.- - - Updated - - -FYI, I think their marketing staff should be fired. Not one picture running through rough water and the interior photos and layout info sucks. 20 pictures of it running down the lake in smooth water and hardly any of the inside showing any real detail. For a big product launch like this, I'm underwhelmed with how they are showing the important part, the interior!- - - Updated - - -Pretty sure the big Fiberglass reveal & product launch was more geared towards the bass boats since it was debuted at the bass master classic. Hopping the debut of the 22 ftr at the NW show brings more detail on the DVX boats.</blockquote>
