    ALL NEW CONTENDER 27T - This is a major improvement!!!

    All new and damn sweet!


    The new & improved 27 T boasts 9’6” beam.

    Standard features now include twin raised live wells, a walk-in console and a built-in forward seat.

    In addition, fuel capacity has been increased to 265 gallons. New options include forward bow seating and a new fiberglass leaning post with a built in live well.

    Ps. I do believe the owner of this one is on this site somewhere somehow, Congrats and Best of the Best with her!

    Beautiful ride!

    Mary, very much interested in pictures of the optional leaning post - live well set-up, if available.
    Thanks,

    The 27T would be the next step for me in a boat. Perfect for my area and very trailerable. One problem is they rate it for only 600HP? Leaves only the twin 300HPDI (factory installed) as your choice of engines to max the hull rating hp. I'd like to see one with twin F350's....I could peel the "Ludicrous" off my boat and it would fit that combo very nicely.

    Anybody have the new 27T with:

    -Suzuki 300's?

    -Merc 300xs?

    -Merc V300?

    Anyone with Yamaha 300HPDI numbers?

    The 27T's have been in production for 2008 model year only which started about 30 days ago, I personally do not have any real time run #'s on the boat yet. The boat is offered right now with 200's 250's and 275's but it can be rigged with anything up to 600hp and weight equalivent. It would be Contenders call on what is best for it.

    Contender does not offer Suzuki's but the boat can be ordered without engines. The will do the pre-rig from console to transom and the can hang the engines. I recommend letting them do the pre-rig on it because they have wide open access to it while building it and labor is cheaper that way.

    Glad to see your back at it! Your hair well thats a different story, something with them Fountain boys and thier hair.

    A nicey nice enclosure will take care of that. Unless your one of them that likes the windshileds and then thats what you get. BTW that directonal wind flow really does wonders for you hair.
