Eliminator V bottom tunnel hull

[Nubbs]

I found a 21' eliminator V bottom tunnel hull. I think it's an 88. It's a jet drive too. Anyways, does anyone know anything about these hulls? Good? Bad? Etc?
Thanks

Somebody has to know something about these hulls? Please, I'm begging. :D

Yep, its called an 'edge'. It is the same concept as the 24' Cheetah. Somewhat of a mod-vp where there is a v in the front of the hull and a tunnel in the back. I think Eliminator stopped making them in 1992 or 1993. They are faster than the conventional v hull, but less stable.

Can you post a pic? I had an 88' Sleekcraft mod-v hull about a year ago. Sold it and bought the Baja. It was fairly fast, but not as fast as a cat or a tunnel. It was a little more stable than a tunnel, but it had really low freeboard and I got wet way too much. Didn't handle chop very well. It's fun boat for a small lake or river, but don't go where any big cruisers might be or wind chop.

No pic yet. How does the tunnel handle the water compared to a regular V bottom?

Mine handles like a race boat.. :wink: It rides a lot like a cat when it packs air.. and turns like a V.. but all and all its still only 22" long.. so unless you still get beat up..
but the hull is ssssuuuuuppppper effecient.. dosnt take much power to get it over 90
