    Did you take any pictures of the 24 open bow with 400R? If so can you post them?
    Thanks!

    I quizzed the boys at the factory about the reported 85 mph top speed.
    They laughed and said when they get time to finish dialing it, they expect to see 90.

    Has Merc 300 V-8's on it and were the first Ive seen in person.
    They are GINORMUS! I bet they're 7' tall.

    Anyhow, thought some of you might enjoy seeing this new beauty being built 45 mins from my house.

    They also had a 24' Open bow w/a 400r Verado that was gorgeous!

    Sorry, I did not.

    Was in a hurry and thought about it on my way out the door.

    I'd rather be competitive w/junk I built in my garage than win w/stuff I bought.


    I refuse to allow common sense to interfere w/my boat buying decisions.

    Beautiful resto on the Eliminator, my Checkmate has the same "woven" silver upholstery and my dad had checkmate build his new interior with some of it too. Its a nice touch, breaks it up a little. Love how they matched gelcoat to vinal down the sides!
