Haven't seen this one on RDP yet. Here's the latest M35 delivery. I dig it, especially the details like solid hatches and patterned carpet. To me, it's the small stuff that sets custom builder's apart.

The owner of this used to own the Blue M31 with the tan interior. This M35 is beautiful.

Yep, that M31 probably had more miles on its trailer than every other DCB combined. Commuting between BC and Havasu several times a year is a long ride!

I also like that carpet !

The hatches come full circle - I like the look of having them finished top and bottom with out the viewing port.

Is the color white or cream?

So, this M35 is owned by who I thought it is then.

With the 1350's, I was hoping to hear it broke 170... Might not be a stretch if your birdie is right [emoji106]🏼[emoji106]🏼

Breaking her in easy, kinda... She'll run an easy 170 once everything gets settled in.

Ok, maybe I'm too critical , but those colors???? If you boat in havasu, you know that anything other than white can burn you it gets so hot. Brown seats and carpet??????
If I had the coin I would choose different colors. My .02

Primarily a Shuswaps boat. Peaks out at about 85 degrees during the summer up there.

I really don't know what it stands for! Been trying to get it out of him. He just laughed one day and said in a joking way it should stand for Xtra Stupid. He hasn't told me yet.

Does anyone have any experience with the Alcantara and ultra leather interior? I am interested in how the alcantara holds up to exposure to water. I think someone on here mentioned in the past that the black alcantara is no hotter than white vinyl.

I don't have any long term experience with it but I have been out in a few dcb's that have it and you are correct. It is hotter then white vinyl but cooler then darker color vinyls.

I'm sure there isn't any longevity problems with it or they wouldn't be using it.

Congrats to Brads I believe on here, and will say yet again, his previous blue M31 is probably my favorite boat of all time. Enjoy the new ride.

I have noticed a lot of DCB owners (I didn't say all) don't really get wet and get back in their boat. We like to enjoy the water when we're out there and wouldn't want the interior going to shit after two years.

The Alcantara in my boat is in really good shape for what it's been through. The boat has 270 hrs on it and the interior got a good washing at the sandbar at one point, had a ton of people in and out of it, and looks like new. The seats are hot when you first sit down in them (like any seat exposed to direct sun) but cool almost immediately. I get in the water a lot and have got them soaking wet. They actually cool down when they're wet and you can never tell where they've been wet and not. Hottest thing in my boat is the carpet. It's black and ridiculously hot in the summertime. Actually having them quote me an Alcantara carpet as it would be much cooler than the current setup. I am really impressed with the quality and durability of the material.

Thanks John, any chance you could post up some photos of your interior?

I believe the first Python has that? Looked great last I saw and pets ride on it from what I was told?

Looking through my photos and I really don't have any of the interior. When I get her back from DCB I'll take some.

The earlier M35 S had a updated M8 drive,XS might be another modification of the M8 drive.

You guys know DCB's are 100% custom to the guy that strokes the check don't you? If the guy dropping 5, 6, 7 large wants to put XS or JJ or RDSUX in the gel I'm sure Dave and the boys would do it!!

Would that be custom or kustom?

Great perspective. I removed the grey carpet in my boat because it was too hot. I like the textured gel floor so it can be washed down to get all the sand , etc out.

The more pictures and videos I see of this boat, the more I love it. The color combinations, the gel scheme, the interior details, the motor/ drive packages... Definitely my favorite M35 yet, maybe my favorite DCB yet. Absolutely amazing. Well done!!

Looks beautiful for sure, but that interior has to get hotter than friggin hell and can't imagine it being friendly to water, suntan lotion and all the other stuff the typically comes in contact with the interior when boating...

Very clean, I like the simple lines and not crazy colors. If money was no object the possibilities are endless. The carpet is next level, wish i would have thought of that.
