I am building these from the original Youngblood TX19 molds and are available in various stages; from intake only to complete installations. This bare hull is available now for $9000 plus intake installation (yours or SoCal provided). Or, as indicated, I will finish to any stage.
I also have the original Eliminator 19' Daytona molds and will be producing those also. The flat keel (bad) in the tunnel mold has been replaced with a Bennett designed keel (good).

Hey, good luck Dave. Can't wait to see one in person.
For those of you who've never seen Dave's rigging work, it's first class. Always has been. :)

I think Eliminator built their second mold (round keel) in the mid 80s and sold the one I have. I purchased it from Neil Emig (Predator Boats / San Diego High Performance Marine) a few months ago. Neil had the keel modified while he had it.

Thats a nice looking boat. Just enough graphics to give it some style. I really hate the over done paint/gel coat look.

Thanks for the comment YB......We wanted it to be clean and simple yet modern. I'm going to have to come up with something else pretty quick because I think this one will be gone this weekend!

I had a couple of kids hiding under the transom and slow burn was pushing up at the bow eye to get it float half way level. Funny stuff. Your tunnel is sitting in a resin drum somewhere. Let's finish the spec, next season will be here before you know it. Keep in mind we have lots of dirt bike riding ahead of us this winter too. I wish that cloning technology was further along.

Nice boat!
Thanks, I wanted to stay away from the typical CP look. This one is still available. I sold one this morning with similar graphics but different colors.
Saw your post about the tunnels in JJ. Not sure about dimensional differences overall, but the daytona has a wider keel at the intake area. Reliefs have to be installed in high HP lightweight apps to reduce lift at the intake plane. The TPRs and Chys have the reliefs built in the mold or are inserts in the mold.
I have to think that they are pretty similar and it boils down to setup. Check out HTPs site and you can see what I mean in the pics that show the intake area.

This boat should be finally hitting the water in 2-3 weeks. Got a call today that there is an interested buyer so I thought I would bring this thread back towards the top to make it easier to find.
