Just curious if any body is running this boat and how it is, I am in the market to buy one but want to know how people like it

I have a 24 stilleto tunnel and have had great luck with this boat. I orginally had a 21 Ultra, but sold that for the 24' from Cheetah Bob. Bob makes a great boat! I have a 454 MPI, I am topped out at 60mph. The boat wants allot more! The hull handles well. I would recommend the 24 over the 23 because the 24 has the option for a mid cud, and the overall stance of the boat is alot bigger. I boat in the Parker area and Havasu, tackled 5ft swells on a bad day, and the boat took the chop like a knife cutting through cake. I have had up to 12 people on board, and The boat has prevailed plenty of room. Talk with BOB, he can make it happen.

A friend of mine has a 23' open bow and loves it. We went with the 24' closed bow needed a little bit bigger boat. Go see Cheetah Bob he will hook you up.
I've got one and love it. It's a great lake boat. We lake camp so the open bow was a must for offloading. It responds to Hp well. Haven't gotten it in trouble with 1100+.
Alright sounds like the one to look at is the 24, then, does the hull have any problems freeing up, and what kind of hp motors do you guys have in yours, i was looking at the 496 mag, just wondering what kind of numbers the boat turns with this motor, or is the HO better cause it is a 3,000 upgrade, didnt know if it was worth it or not, Does anybody own one in the are of upland, Ca, maybe i could take a look at it before dragging my wife to havasu, to twist her arm for one

Just curious wink
as I have seen alot of Bob's boats and was wondering which motor setup and outdrive?
Is yours the one they modifed the stern to make it work?

HDD, that's a 23 with the 1100+hp twin turbo/efi 528 hemi in it. He runs an SSM #4 on a custom setback box that has been glassed onto the transom and gel coated to blend in. It's a very nice and custom setup that he built himself. It scoots...
(Wally is not one to brag so I thought I'd help him out a little!)
OK thats the one I saw right after he dropped the motor in. wink
That would make for one scary ride with that much HP. eek! eek! eek!
HDD
Scary, nah... Eye watering, yes!
I haven't been in the boat yet at full speed. (hint hint he STILL owes me a ride!) I have seen it go blasting past me several times though. Looked good, nice attitude, wasn't doing anything funny.
