Factory Direct type of sales scheme/pricing. Relative to other brands it is cheaper. Besides, if they aren't cheap they should be. Fit and finish is still a little off. 8' beam on both Rambo and Rabco. Which is darn narrow. Climbed all over the Rabco. No way I am fitting into the console to find a head. Check out the 28 Rabco with twin 250 Zukes. It is a snotty day and the boat is dry.. It might snap a little on a drift..
