Any body checked out this flat on dragboats.com?He,s motivated to sell but doesn't want to seperate.
The Canyon looks like a gorgeous boat, but the price was up there..............course it could be worth it depending on the hardware, etc. Nice Boat Though! I saw the other day........
A buddy of mine turned me on to that boat the second it came up for sale. Too bad he won't seperate but I'm still interested. My Buddy "an un named Drag Boat Racer" claims that boat was pretty hot when it was in competition..nice history!.

[img]http://www.***boat.net/class/rkeys2.jpg[/img]I have seen a few different versions of Connollys. If my thinking is right that one has such a shallow v that it's pretty much a flatbottom.
THATS RIGHT DAVE, GOOD CALL. A GOOD FRIEND HAS ONE THAT MIGHT JUST BE THE FASTEST AROUND THESE DAYS. I'VE RODE IN MORE THAN ONE OF THSE BAD ASS BOATS. LOVED 'EM SINCE I WAS LITTLE. THEY HOP OUT OF THE WATER AND REALLY "LEAVE" LIKE A FLAT, VERY HARD!!. THERE NOT FOR MID DAY PARKER RACING(BUY A SCHIADA THEN). WITH A GOOD BLOWN MOTOR IN A CONOLLY, THEY WILL LEAVE ANY OTHER DAY CRUISER FAR BEHIND. THEN AGAIN NOT IN ROUGH WATER . FROM A FIST GEAR LAUNCH I'VE SEEN PROP SHAFT, ROLL OVER INTO SECOND AND SAY GOODNIGHT TO THE GUY NEXT TO YOU,THEN OH MY GOD YOU BETTER HOPE THE THING STAYS IN THE WATER, THEY WILL FLY!!!!. eek!

Well I'll keep that in mind. When my boats done I'll be sure not to race one unless it's nice and sloppy! Why get one of those when you already have the best smooth water rocket. If you make a move make sure you can run hard in the slop!
WELL, I CAN'T TAKE MINE OUT DURING THE DAY!! I HATE THAT SHIT. THIS WOULD GIVE ME THE BEST OF BOTH WORLDS. BESIDES IF I HAD A BOAT I COULD BE RACING ALL THOSE CATS WITH DURING MID-DAY CHOP, I WOULD KILL MYSELF FOR SURE OR SOMEONE ELSE. NOT A WHOLE LOT OF BRAINS UP TOP IF YA KNOW WHAT I MEAN.

PUBLIC MESSAGE:
I DIDND'T SAY I WAS GOING TO BUY ONE, JUST A THOUGHT!!! BEFORE I GET THE HEAT!!!
Yeah, running in the shit is a totaly different world, if you got the right boat, it's awesome, Grier Rush took me out in his GN at Red Rock last week, man what a blast, we were running right around 85 for about 4 miles, never backed out once, we went over 3ft rollers and chop like it was nothing, when we got back, his friend said he saw a house under the boat as we went down river, we had to be at least 5ft out of the water, sure didn't feel like it!...That's what I want!!!!.... :cool:
YA, THATS WHAT I'M TALKIN' ABOUT. STAY OUT OF THE PEDAL, THOSE CONNOLLYS WILL HAUL ASS IN CHOP, JUST HANG ON. I WOULD STAY OUT OF THE "HUGE STUFF" BUT IT WILL GO ANYWERE A RAYSON WILL GO, THATS WHAT IT WAS MADE FOR!!!

Yeah, I'm debating between a Rush or a Rayson, the Rush is a bit longer which helps but the Rayson looks like a flat, the Rush looks more like a cruiser, last year the Rush dominated in GN!!...Oh well, decisions, decisions!!..I ain't sold mine yet anyhow so I ain't worried about it, still nothing like a flat!!!....
THIS IS A GUY MY BUDDY KNOWS, ITS A 21'RAYSON RUNS HARD. I THINK HE WANTS 28,000. MY BROTHER WAS INTERESTED FOR A WHILE.

Wilder,
I like the Connelly too, it looks like they took a Campbell 20 bottom & Spectra 20 deck.
They were made or sold by Orange County Speed & Marine?
They run real well.

That is a bitchin lookin boat! Although I am a bit partial to the Daytona Sprint, this would be a sweet boat...
ssmike
As much as I like my Daytona, it just won't run thru the junk like the Rayson will!!...Damn, wish I had both!!..... :mad:
I'm pretty sure that Connolly belonged to 2 of my buddies here in Va. The last one that had it sold to a guy in Texas. when the first guy had it, it had a blown 496 in it. I drove that deal at 100 mph with a 3 blade prop on it. It handled a lot like a flat and turned good too. Nice boat, what is the guy asking for it?
