It starts with that first cup of coffee at O-Dark-Thirty. You hold your watch up to a light. Right on schedule. You can almost feel that first pull of the morning.

Trailer parked, car locked, you join your gang of friends on the boat and start the engine. The sound of the big V-8 frightens a few birds and delights a couple of dock-rat kids just waking up a quarter mile away. You idle the big 21-footer (21 feet, 4 inches / 6.48 meters in length and 96 inches / 2.44 meters in width, to be exact) out onto the water and let's rip. Despite the load, the boat leaps onto a plane. Hearts are pumping, pistons pounding, the chill wind off the bow promises perfect turns as you carve an arc to your favorite cove.

The boat is a dream made real - a dream that rocks and rules. We call it the ProStar 214 and it is the biggest, most spacious model of the ProStar line. Given all the features and improvements we've built into this one, we fully expect the 214 to set records and impress reviewers just like each of its predecessors.
