2016 Screaming Eagle Talon 22SS

**checkmate 250** · 07-06-2016, 07:53 AM

Got this boat out for the first time Saturday and I'll tell you what I was nothing but impressed :-). The boat handles awesome and the build of this boat is is even more impressive. It hit 101 on the rev limiter very quickly. I didn't have a bigger prop with me as I just wanted to get a feel of the hull. Todd Lamb at screaming eagle boats is a great guy to work with. He definitely knows how to build a quality boat to say the least. I'll post pictures later of some top end runs when I get back out :-)

Thank you Joe for being one of the best to deal with. Not only did I gain a customer on this deal, but a new friend.

Here is the video of this boat and it's first time out.

Damn! That is a beautiful rig.

Nice setup! Boat looks like it came out beautiful, and you've got a reliable, fuel efficient, high performance (100+mph) rig that should be balanced well and drives great! Enjoy it and be safe.

Awesome looking boat !! You'll have to change your screen name now !!! Thank you for setting up a nice clean modern dash !! It looks so nice not having a bunch of gauges cluttering things up !! Good luck with the boat and come run with us in Florida, can't wait to see it in person !!!

Thank you Mike, we are very pleased with them. I know I still have a lot of learning to do to ever produce the beautiful gel coat schemes the California guys do. For now I am keeping them pretty basic to be on the safe side.

Very nice looking and running boat for sure. What lake were you on in the video? Todd's building them with some really nice glass work for anyone who has yet to see one in person-Randy Corson, (Wildman), is a guy that has been inside of a lot of different boats with his rigging and painting process and his first words to me when we were looking at the one that he got was "this is one of the best built boats that I have ever seen"-

Pictures of the Talon beating a 370 hp 19 foot Eliminator. He had to change props on the Talon, as the Eliminator beat him the first 2 races, but the Talon came back with the new prop and won the next 3 races. This was a 600' drag race in Michigan this past weekend. If any of this information is incorrect, just shoot the messenger, me.
