Oh I agree I was just pointing it out that looks to be a decent deal for someone. I was very happy with my Ultra but one major reason for the switch was the need/desire for twin engines for my application. Since this is a single, it wouldn't meet my needs for the areas I wanted to boat in but someone that a single engine application works, not to shabby.
Saw the boat on the front cover of Boat Trader last week when Garcia & I were down in SoCal visiting a few manufactures and dropping his boat off at Cobra.
I would have to say between a deck (30') and my (29' open bow) maybe 250-300lbs. guessing. I do know that vacuum bagging and the kevlar and penski composite crap definetely takes some weight out of the boat, possibly 500+lbs. Please dont quote me on these numbers they are educated guess'. i remember when I was told that vacuum bagging a 29' could save 1000lbs. sphss not buying it.... Anyways, thanks for the props on my boat, like I said its not for everyone but for me, I freakin love it...
the best part is, i dont even have the second photo you posted taken in front of dcb. sphss
when i emailed dave and bryan a photo of the numbers the boat ran they both seemed shocked and like roln20s posted, the f&%*ing thing is an open bow stage 3 and plus some more speakers stereo system. I would love to see someone build a light 29', closed bow, and throw a big 5 blade cleaver to see some topend numbers. I know dave set the "X" somewhat conservative because I wanted the boat to plain like a single. If someone let dave run the "X" where he likes to set up his boats you could make this package a fast setup.
Yo Charlie, how's Hawaii treating ya? Sun, water, boats and girls...i'm sure your not complaining too much as for the boat, moving up to something with twins but not getting away from the style of functionality as the deck model fits our current boating style rather well.
