Does anyone know where the additional weight of the AR250 vs Ar240 is coming from? Looks to be about 374lbs additional and the boat only increased by 6". I know some will be from the larger gas tank, but did they increase hull thickness on this model? Also, does anyone know if this model will have the swim up seating? Thanks!

My thoughts so far.... And this would be the one that I look at the AR250 hopefully at a boat show.

1) I like the blue, do not like the White Tower.
2) What is up with how the tower attaches to the boat? Gaps and pointy on the front and back of where the tower meets that mounting piece. How does that fold with the windowshield.

3) Screen.... C,mon, could of went up to the next size.


4) I like the wet storage, perfect spot for it. Alot of it now with the lower compartment.


5) Concerned about the table placement behind driver.
7) Would like to see Bimini Top up
6) Like the port Storage area and netting.

That screen being downsized in that frame is a joke, just makes you feel kinda like you got the watered down version ?

The freeboard looks a lot higher.

No swim up seating on the AR250.

Found a vid here that seems to show this seating.

As best I can tell, the videos they're showing aren't specific to one model; e.g. on the AR250 page the video shows several of the 25 foot models. Me saying the AR250 doesn't have the swim up seating was based on the using the compare function on the website (see attached screencap), but who knows if that info is correct or not either.

Keep in mind the hull is deeper.

Can anyone actually verify the weight of the AR250? On the website it says 4034lbs but in another section it says over 5k lbs. I need to get a proper lift but can’t figure out the empty weight!
