This boat can/will run anywhere and is a GREAT crossover boat. Wives/gf's love the padded rear deck and nice interior. Because of its lightweight and 20 degree steptec hull still runs very strong. Definitely handles like on rails and can probably handle as much power as you can put to her. No surprise we've sold 8 since last fall.

Here's one we built over the winter(with an all aluminum big block - retired race engine)

You must be doing a good job then, Mr. Marketing Manager!!!

Neat, an LS2 in a jet!!!

You guys should put one of the new LS7 Corvette engines in one of those boats!!! That would really be bad ass!!!devil

Bad ass boat!!!devil You guys do some great work up there in the North. If you don't mind me asking, about how much does one of those things cost?

Pump was a AT 309 with power trim as far as I recall, nothing exotic. Boat did 75+ effortlessly at something like 4300 rpm :O

been there done that! hahahahaha ironically not only was this also in a 21 X Sport(open bow) but it was also built for the same owner of the copper boat pictured above

I think back then we were the first people to put this type of engine in a production boat, we even had to have custom adapters made for the exhaust etc

The LS2 stroker boat just got its decal package and it looks super sweet. As usual Richard did a wicked job and its always nice to see what he comes up with. What do ya think?

 

[Oldelmn8tr]

I think it looks great, would like to own one one day.

Alright, how bout' one with a turbine engine in it?grn I've seen an alloy with one, but have you guys built one, or are there any plans to?

 

[big kahunaa]

[Oldelmn8tr]

If I remember correctly I think he is building a turbine one for himself.

 

[JohnnyNitrous]

There have now been two turbine boats built by us. One 23 Steptec by Mark Nye in the burbs of Toronto with a T-58 (which I've been in)

and Tim Harding of OR just completed the US worlds in a 21 Tunnel built by us, also with a T-58. Rumors are he hit 137 MPH on one leg and had 200 HP to spare

This video says it all :

And yes I have a project going to do a T-53 powered boat

 

[slow67]

The only pain in the ass, is that the T-58 PTO transmission spins backwards....

 

[JohnnyNitrous]

If you read up on his website, he machined an impeller and bowl for reverse rotation!! that bowl is badass!!!
