In the NADA boat values guide it shows a Rinker Fiesta Vee 250 as a 27' vessel which is reality a 25' boat with a 2' swim deck attached! Does Rinker have a deal with NADA?

    That's including the swim platform. Try finding my 03 342 with Diesels. Won't happen

    No nowa days boats are LOA and not "water line" like the old days. My 342 is now considered a 37 footer and not a 34 footer.

    Our 280 was 30' LOA according to the Rinker brochure.  The 342 is 37' LOA according to the title.

    Yes, it includes a swim platform. Many manufacturers are reving up the marketing by including the swim platform in the model designation.  From what I can remember when I bought my 260EC, the Fourwinns v285 was the competing model to the 260EC, difference being the Fourwinns added the swim platform to the 285 designation (because it was 28.5' LOA).  This compared my Rinker which is 28'10" LOA.
