Congrats Rick, keep us posted on the build.
Anybody looking for a used deck that is clean, his old one would be a great buy. I've had the pleasure of driving it a couple of times and it is a nice boat.

How many people? How many do you know? lol! We have taken 12 MANY times and 15 if you take 'er easy and they aint too BIGG!
How fast? Faster than some, slower than others. I can only say it runs with the HO powered crowd no problem. Official top speed is 37mph without the blower.

I know what you mean. I had a buddy buy a ebbtidechapparellhurricane and then he came out to visit and we went to the sand bar together. When he got home his wife made him sell the boat and order a cheetah fastdeck.

Thanks Tom, it sure was/is alot of fun kinda boat. Ya' know, used to be guys would go out to the river to drink and have a good time without the ladies so there would be no drama. I admit I like to ladies to be there more than heavy on the guys but.....THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH A BOAT LOAD OF SAUSAGE! lol.
Fast? The new hull hit about 73 with an HO.

All new boat. Full inner liner. All new bottom. Very anxious to see the numbers. This is the first one with a 525. Hope we get the right 'x' for this hull. It ran 73-74 with an H.O. in cool weather and a light load.

As we all know, Bob is is not into the bling or high tech or high volume for that matter. He's just doing things his way and keeping the biz under tight control. That's why you can get this boat with an HO, stereo, bimini, wash down and trailer for around $70k! This thing is going to be SOOOO family friendly. Very deep inside. Just as much space in the deck area as most 28's.

When I called Bob today he said you were out in the boat????????:devil:
I've never know Bob to lie........................
But then again, I don't think he told you that either unless he was talking about me being in the boat in the shop.
