Joe,

What was with the painted sportsmaster lowers?

Just for the show or a new thing?

There are a lot of paint options. I am not sure if its just on the display motors or not-never asked.

It will be out and talked about in the next couple of weeks and there will be a thread on it. Its outside the box and has detailed custom rigging to the nines. My guess is that it will be very fast and if its not then it will get changed again until it is-

An outboard version right? Is it the new East Coast Eliminator dealer's rig?

900 , now it's interesting.

Eddie's 28 Doug Wright Fat Cat looking for new motors especially the ones off the 34MTI He liked the white with carbon .

Even my 300R has painted sporty I liked the unpainted you could put the skeg in the sand not with these.
