I've never seen a boat show where Grady-White was not represented by the local dealer. Let us know what you find out.

I will...what I did find out today is that my wife is a Realtor and the manager of the local Marine Max is one of he clients. She talked to him today and he said that was not the right price for a 26ft boat.

Just watched a YouTube 'Outboards Only' video walk through of the 265 at FLIBS.
Base price is $293k and the as shown price is $337k

Base power option. That one has a lot of options on it like starboard extendable seat and underwater lights. The real base price is lower than $293k.

Just saw that. $293 with 200s, $337 for the 300s. If I do this it will probably be the 200s. Or, I just get a 2 year old 285 for $280K. There is one about an hour away.
 
Well, boat shows are dangerous. Wife and I went to the FLIBS this weekend and ended up putting a deposit on the 265 with 300s. It really is a beautiful boat in person and kind of makes the 275 and 285 look a bit old fashioned. The redesigned T-top is amazing and retaining the swim platforms is deal maker (its one of my favorite features of my 235). I was afraid the 300s would be too big, but they fit perfectly. You can see in the picture they are spaced exactly the same as the 285 behind it to the left and I think that is a 281CE directly behind.

Although the boat is only 26ft, it's about 1,000lb heavier than the 275 due to the wider beam and only 600lbs lighter than the 285.

Our boat is currently in production. The wife and I are visiting the factory on Nov 20th for our anniversary and we should be able to see it being built! Expected delivery is late Nov or early Dec.
