Nordic Rage boat
Jul 2^nd, 2010 at 8:30am

I'm always plotting out my next step in the bigger boat department. I think I've narrowed it down to the Nordic Rage. It's faster than my boat, looks bad ass, still will work for wake boarding, comfortable for hanging out, could be pulled by my truck and I think the mid cabin would be nice.

I am thinking of something like this:

I know we have a few Nordic owners here. What does everyone think?

Nice boat but it looks like it would be tight seating. unless your rides are going to sit below while underway it looks like it may only if five 5 to six people above deck. If it was me I would look more toward a full on ski boat. they can hold more people. i would go for something like this

In the same vein....

A little more money though.

And for sheer speed...

And if you need a lot of room to entertain....

OK, I've pimped all my inventory. I'll shut up now. Cool

I think the Rinker is priced at 59900 and the Velocity is 57900. We can rip you a pretty good deal, I'm sure. The Rinker is a sweet boat with the 496 MAG and Bravo III drive. Pump out head and 30 amp shore power. It's got a nice amp and 3 10" subs. You can kill fish with the bass. Grin

New list on that boat is over 112K, if I recall correctly.

Sweet boat with a really good price.

I do like the Rage..... personally I prefer the open bow model. My kids love sitting up in the bow. However, I wouldn't let anyone sit up there if I was dropping the hammer Wink

Thank Rinker is an exceptionally nice looking boat. It looks like a load of fun. Was that the one you hauled back from out east?
