I'm kinda reliving the teenhood dream with the boat in my avatar. It really still looks good for almost 30 year old gel. I could never afford a boat like this back then, but searched one out to own now. Some people don't get it that I like the "retro" graphics, and wonder why I don't paint it. In my opinion, that would be sacrilege!!

Here's a flyer for the 19 Daytona
One thing I noticed on all of this literature is they never tell you where the weight number was derived; some seem like bare hull w/interior, others seem like with engine, so it is very hard to compare even between their own literature, so beware if you are using this info for historical fact, use best judgement. Or weigh a buddy's boat! I'm sure they varied throughout production as well, especially if someone wanted the "light layup".A problem is only a problem when viewed as a problem...

I was a tournament water skier through that period in Oklahoma and Texas. Saw alot of inboard ski boats, but never an Eliminator Comp Direct!

Love the seats, wish mine were the back to back. The matching graphics on the 2.5 really look nice

These old Eliminator owner threads are of great interest . These hulls I believe were very nicely built . Gel coat was excellent and build quality was high . I personally own a 19 and like the exposed core and stringers . This hull was built with a setback bracket and comes back over transom and ties back into stringers - sort of like the bracketry they were doing for the inboard v drive setups . Please take a look and comments if you seen this old piece in the California area . so I'm basically just started getting this wet and figuring out where the drive wants to sit and run well . Had lots of help reading setup posts and getting the most out of this 80 -19 .

Very Cool, I had a 86 21 Eliminator Daytona. 14 years we owned it. We put 2 trailers under it 2 interiors in it and 3 motors on it. They paint work and gel looked as good as the day we bought it. Came with a 200 Merc, which I ran for a while then added Land and Sea's nitrous kit to it. Ran a ton of nitrous through that motor.
