Not your fathers Suntracker
Have any of you guys seen one of these in person? Saw it in my dealers showroom about a month ago. They just posted these on their Facebook page. Looks better in person. Has everything you could ask for. Lots of interior leds, powered bimini. Price tag was in the $65k range
Now for the bad. They posted these on Facebook because they are furnishing it to our buddy Brady at Pontoon & Deckboat magazinee for some testing.

I own a regency and the thing is riddled with problems. Tracker won't ever return calls.

Re: Not your fathers Suntracker
I saw this one exactly like this at one of the boat shows, Atlanta I believe. It was very attractive. I kept wondering how the tubes would look after a few scrapes or with water stains.

Re: Not your fathers Suntracker
Powder coat holds up fairly well in wet environments. Challenge will be color retention . Most like.y they used a AAMA grade 2606 grade powder that has more uv fade protection . Should hold up well for several years. Scratches are another issue. No fix for that. I do think they picked the ugliest brown available!,, it's nice but it's still a tracker product ...better choices for less out there for sure. No offense to those who own one.

Re: Not your fathers Suntracker
I agree...I think the brown tubes look horrible, also the brown trim.

I want to qualify my above statement.smltooner wrote:I agree...I think the brown tubes look horrible, also the brown trim.
I still think the brown tubes and trim look terrible with the black side panels.
However, if you go to the Regency website, the brown tubes and trim look much better with the tan side panels.

I also think part of it is just the picture. That brown looks much different in person. Not nearly that light of a brown. More like this in person

Re: Not your fathers Suntracker
I'd just wish they used a consistent numbering scheme. I went in to talk to a rep about the Regency 220 DL3, as I wanted a 22 foot tri-toon. After talking to him for 10 minutes I went up on the boat in the showroom and thought: "Wow. This seems a whole lot bigger than my 22' DLX.
It appears that the 220 DL3 is really 25'4" and the 254 DL3/LE3 is 27'5".
Leave it to Tracker to model number their boats different than every other boat manufacturer in (or out) of existence.
They're nice boats, but I'd like to see a 22' luxury model.
