I had to part ways with my 203 just to many small issues noise level under powered wish I had the twin set up 223 preferably the 224 to small for the family only could fit 4 comfortable more then that it get crowded fast had warranty issues since I bought it. Now a happy owner of a starcraft exs 3 pontoon boat.
 
Congrats on a change you are happy with!

How is it powered? Have you taken it out yet? Details? Best of Luck!
 
I did a lake run before I bought it was very quiet and smooth Yamaha 150 4 stroke. I believe this boat would hit 40 no problem.The exs series is starcrafts mid level boat and very well made heavy hat construction with the HMX package. She's in storage now sleeping till spring.
Wish I could have keep the vortex maybe some day get another one who knows
 
Sorry things didn't work out. Good luck with your new ride.
