Ok guys don't get too excited, although I did.

I had always wondered about DC boats. They give up a bit of room but are great for riders so they don't get blasted by wind. Then I was walking through BPS and I saw, what I thought, was an ingenious design.

A removable DC boat. I believe it was on the Z-8. The passenger console can be removed by about 5 snap clips that hold it in place. I, personally, am not a fan of Nitros but I think this is a remarkable idea. Do any other boat manufacturers have this?

Phoenix Boats have had this for a few years now.

One thing I did notice on the Z-8 was that the console material seemed very thin and "cheap" IMO. It looked like it would be easily breakable or crackable. For the money it would seem that the housing would have been thicker and more durable. They don't seem to be having trouble getting pros to use their boats so it can't be too flimsy.

The clasps to hold the second console in place looked very sturdy and didn't appear to even allow any gapping.

I know Champion had them and Triton does, and probably many others. They have been around for about 5-6 years........Al

LOL

goes to show you how long its been since I looked at new boat.

A day late and a dollar short

They do take up a little more room, but the glove box on the second console is worth it's weight in gold. At least for me. That's one thing I really miss with a single console boat, simple storage for little things like phones, wallets, sunglasses, etc.

Have you seen the new Z9 CDC? Center Dual Console. I think it looks kinda weird, but I think there is a lot of function to this design. check it out.
