    Ah James, you missed it! The gear shift folds down into the console because the top of the large cushioned storage box in-between the two passengers folds forward and down, creating a laptop or writing surface (or for your Big Mac lunch). Many F150 owners work out of their trucks at construction sites and such. I use that somewhat regularly.

    Oh oh James.... Floridians will make fun of you for having confused a pumpkin and the all time very famous oranges on the reg plates!!. But seriously, being a former customer of Searay myself (I had a Seayay Sundancer 290 when I lived in Dubai), I had the chance to visit the very same factory back in 2018. Captain Rusty ( great man) was my host and he gave me the chance to get onboard a beautiful 650 Fly... actually it was the very last model to be delivered before the factory announced the end of manufacturing large boats which in my opinion was a mistake but anyways.. I can say that I was at the helm of a huge 650 Fly in Florida!!. Great video as usual, thanks!!

    If Sea Ray would put higher rails on the bow . I would certainly consider the boat. I know my wife would be happy with it also.

    Hi James, love the vids. Would be interested in hearing your opinion on what you think makes a great starter boat for a novice? Something to cut your teeth on, without breaking the bank. I assume IPS drive would be recommended? Keep up the good work

    Wonderfully unprofessional and poorly rehearsed video, very relatable, as usual 👍🏻
    Not a fan of the Sundancers, they just sit so tall in the water, doesn't look good. They're the minivans of the seas, practical, yes, but so unsexy.
    Regarding the retractable gear lever in the Ford: you failed to discover that the upper half of the armrest folds forward, towards the dash, creating a big work surface for a laptop or paperwork with the gear lever out of the way.
