Matt, nobody can splash your gel and finish a boat within not even the next 2 months nor are many people if any ordering boats right now, "RELEASE THE HOUNDS" !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Magic can have it done next week. Just ask OutCole'd. ;)
Domin8tor just splashed the Eticket that was in Powerboat a couple of months ago. That just sucks! It was an exact copy on their deck boat. I am going to be pissed if they do that to mine. I put too much time and effort coming up with my own design with my friend Russ. I would hope I could keep them to myself.

Those are turning out awesome!
The Eticket with the 525's hit 100 I can't imagine what those would do.

I think they are getting dropped in the boat tomorrow if all goes well and then some prop testing and such.
These motors in your boat would be very close to the Ilmor 625's, without the huge pricetag. Who needs to go 110 mph anyways ?? :220v:
For some reason, these motors never photograph consistent or well, they are very purple...

Larry is going to build one with the 625 Vipers. The motors are already there.

Unfortunately if the gel something really cool and different.....It's gonna get copied (unless it's a Trident). ;) It sucks but it seems to be the way it goes in the west coast custom boat scene.
Congrats on the new boat. :cool:

Yes we are staying at KL's on Friday and Saturday night. We will on the water Friday.
I think we are going to stick with "Sofa King Hot", but I do like "Loud". :)
When are you guys going to get out there?
