Might upgrade to the Ultra G3 next go around since it is the same fit, but nothing fits a narrow flat foot better than a 703 boot. I've always likened Graf to be the New Balance of skates, as they have a boot for every foot. Unlike other manufacturers that seem to be either for narrow feet or wide feet.

Also the best sharpen in town too. Adrenaline is a close second in the sharpen dept though.
I've found that I can't get a wide enough boot in a Graf. I need to go to an Easton EE to get the right width.

I found Tuxedo did a damn good job on my skates. I use a 3/4 hollow and they had no problem getting that done for me. I made the mistake of going to the sports swap or whatever it is in Crowfoot Crossing, and I would never, ever recommend anyone to go there. Just a couple lackey kids in the back who looked at me like I was drunk when I asked for a 3/4.
