Yeah not my cup of tea. Personally I love the look of the full transom CC and DC V20s.

Pretty cool how they got the engine below the deck though and not need the big old dog house cover....is  23+ foot boat so I guess thats easier...agreed though a stranger combination for sure.

looks odd with the "euro" transom, the motor is under that dog house on the back of the boat, Don't think I like that idea, I can see gallons of salt pouring over that motor when backing down

agree with spare, instead of taking up 12 sq ft of deck space, it takes up the back 1/4 of the boat.  i can't imagine flipping the cover up and checking something  in a 3 -5 ft sea.

Didnt see this picture when I was looking.  I thought the engine was under the deck from looking at the pics of the **** pit....definitely an "interesting" setup.

See from that angle I like it. Also like how they made the house for the engine aft the transom. Pretty cool. Not sure how practical like previously stated, but pretty cool.

Wow! Never saw one until now....looks like a nice platform! I like the entry point port side aft......where are all of these hiding??

It's tiny...  That stern eats up too much aft deck space for my money.  Not my cup of tea..  I do like the bow pulpit and the T top however, but that's about it.  :head:

Found a 238 WA with nearly the same transom but rigged as an outboard. Looks like the same amount of deckspace is lost due to Euro Transom. The WA has more room though due to the helm being further forward.

I saw that one too. Looks to me like a bad setup for trolling. When we run inline boards we net the fish right behind the boat, and it looks like you'd need a real long handle net. Just my two cents.
