Why would that boat have a 45 gallon ballast tank???

[mondorally]

Why would that boat have a 45 gallon ballast tank???
In another thread it was posted that the boat was set up for ski racing. The ballast tank gets the nose down in sh!tty water = better ride for the skier.

schiada????...you shoul-ida get back to work!

[Riverkid]

Why would that boat have a 45 gallon ballast tank???
Take a hot lap around the course before and after the ballast tank is used. You'll be sold for life, it just takes a lot of motor to keep her trucking when she's wet...

[Monkey Bung]

$61,000?????????? I think I'll keep looking for that DCB.

:boxed: Thats a very good price for that boat! :boxed:

[Doin' Time]

if it came with a tow vehicle!!!... :p

[Highlimit9000]

if it came with a tow vehicle!!!... :p
look whats available, in that condition, you wont find better boat! Or you could order one from Schiada for double that 120K plus and be on a 2yr waiting list...

[SGettmann]

$61,000?????????? I think I'll keep looking for that DCB.
You have no idea that value of that boat. It's true that it's in the eyes of the beholder, but for you to go down and buy the motor alone, your probably looking at around 40-50K from what I've seen. It looks super clean, and I'm sure you can get the history of the boat from third parties, include Schiad themself, since Schiada owners are generally a close nitch group of people that check in with Lee at the factory regularly. That boat will last for years, then your grandkids can use it (especially if you tear out the interior). My dad's 20' Schiada pulled my mom on the NWSRA circuit for a few seasons in the early 80's. The boat has been used every summer for play, and will always be in the family. I begged my dad to sell it to me and he told me to get lost, so I bought my own 21'. I plan on having this for years. So again, years of enjoyment and a quality boat makes $61K seems like a steel to me, but then again, you're talking to a guy who has a cheap apartment that's living room is full of boat parts, and a nice truck and boat to go to the lake with a few months out of the year, since it's snowing outside right now.

[Doin' Time]

the boat is very nice....40-50k for that motor??? wow!...i love those old shiadas,maybe if he keeps the motor can i offer on the boat??? say 10k?????? :cool: :p

[superdave013]

$61,000?????????? I think I'll keep looking for that DCB.
Do you think you will get a nice DCB for less?
Sounds like you are on a 1970's Spectra budget to me. ;)

[Riverkid]

Give Carson Brummett a call. Tell him you want a bulletproof 1K horse turbo'd BBC for ski racing. See what he comes back at you with.
Good turbo motors are spendy. Great turbo motors, even more so. The level of detail in the boat and rigging is unbelievable. Until you've had one, you can't appreciate it IMHO.
He has a LOT more than 61K in that boat.

If you are on Nacimiento in the spring or on Cour D Alene during the summer, drop me a line. I'll give you a ride and show you what riding in a Schiada is all about. My Idaho biddies thought the same thing, then they finally went for a ride and about crapped their pants with excitement. (My goal is not to scare people when I drive, just take them up to their comfort level ((if it's less than mine)) and show them what the boat can do and how it handles). Ask any Schiada owner - it's definately worth the money.

[schiada96]

they are well worth the money

[SK48]

:mad: The big question is where can you run one these days without
trouble. Even with turbos, the water cops pull you over in my neighborhood.
I've had a Schiada, two Hallett Vectors, and a Biesemeyer, and none of them
are legal in Parker AZ. Last year they asked me to come to the sheriff station
to launch if I wanted to run my turbo boat. The week before the ski races
one racer in a turbo schiada got a ticket for noise, and not having a coast guard approved life jacket ( they were both wearing Lifeline race jackets )
Don't get me wrong I love fast v-drive boats, but in our area we are running
out of places to use them. Thanks for letting me vent.

[Riverkid]

It can get ugly with the noise police. It may cost a few bucks, but how about a water jacketed SS pipe through the transom? I had such a setup on my last two V drives and they both were very quiet... It sounds like someone had a hard on for race boats that weekend... I bet the boats getting pulled over were running numbers :rolleyes:

put mufflers on it. Burns makes some nice ones

[SK48]

I was running double jacketed exhaust with drew shot gun's.
The ski racer was running some big numbers, pulling a novice fourteen year
old boy who was pracitcing. :cry:

[superdave013]

shot guns aren't mufflers. they are just plates with holes that open when you hit the gas. check out the circle track mufflers the dirt cars are running.

My Freind, if you spent 50k in one twin turbocharged motor SOMEONE SAW YOU COMING........................................ You V-Driver's need to stop the B.S You could buy one bad ass Shmidt motor for less than that.......... Hell even a Pfaff motor... PUUULLLEEEEEAAASSSEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE :220v:

I'm sorry Dave with all your vast knowledge. :) But 61,000 for a 21 ft. Schiada is a chunk of change. Dont get me wrong, I love these boats but I can buy a 26' DCB cat for around 70K and smoke these boats all day long while bumpin' the tunes and drinkin' a beer. "I AM NOT RAGGING ON THE BOAT SO DO NOT GET BUTT HURT" its just a lot of money. $40,000 for a motor come onnnnn!!! tell you what I have a engine shop and I need your buisness.

PUUULLLEEEEEAAASSSEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE :220v:A Pfaff blown marathon or turbo motor probally close to 50k these are not drag motors theres a big difference between 8 sec and 1 hour wide open!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[msmeads1]

"Klass Klown"
Call Carson Brummett, tell him you want a 1600 H/P motor that can run WT for one hour.
The price starts a 50K and you will have to wait about 10 months. ( that is if you know the secret hand shake)
If you want the best, you got to pay for it.

[blackcloud75]

$61,000?????????? I think I'll keep looking for that DCB.
My 24'r for a little above $90,000 is a way better deal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ok you guy's obviously are missing the point, s gettmann said his short block will run him appx 10 k to be rebuilt, He already has cylinder heads, turbo's etc, carbs.. Beleive me Turbo motor's are not only put in boat's, They are very popular in street car's as well quick 8's etc.. And yes these are 1/4 mile motor's.. My Reher Morrison comment I will stand by.. You guy's mean to tell me Reher cannott build an endurance motor????? Get out of here... You guy's choose to use who you use, with that being said, A big name motor builder will charge you high dollar, But remember TOLERANCES ARE TOLERANCES, PART"S ARE PART"S .. I know for a fact Duttweiller is cheaper than these guy's!!!!!!! :idea: :rollside:

[Klass Klown]

:p Mr. Monkey Bunger / Klass Klown, just remember one small thing, there are those that have Schiada's and those that wish they had one, and there are those that will never own one, but for those of us that do, it sure brings a big smile knowing how valuable they are. See if your 10-15-20yr old DCB has the same resale value? Klown, your engine comment, you get what you pay for ?
Huffpower I like Schiadas and do not have a problem with the price, But like all boat's especially when you pay to have your motor built the cost is in the engine.... And yes you get what you pay for in some instances LESSS!!!!!!!!!!!! :boxed:

I'm sorry Dave with all your vast knowledge. :) But 61,000 for a 21 ft. Schiada is a chunk of change. Dont get me wrong, I love these boats but I can buy a 26' DCB cat for around 70K and smoke these boats all day long while bumpin' the tunes and drinkin' a beer. "I AM NOT RAGGING ON THE BOAT SO DO NOT GET BUTT HURT" its just a lot of money. $40,000 for a motor come onnnnn!!! tell you what I have a engine shop and I need your buisness.
I would then encourage you to buy that DCB, i'm sure that most Schiada's would run away from a 70K DCB, but that's just MY OPINION!

not butt hurt at all. Yes it is alot of money. Way more then I spent on my 20'. But mine was all beat up and 25 years old. Schiada's have a cult type ownership and I would say DCB's are the only west cost cats that are the same. Just ask any DCB owner and they'll tell ya. But people are either cat guys or a v drive guys. And if you want the very best in v drives you have to pay for it. That's was the owners personal boat and is stunning. You can find one for less I'm sure. Might not be as nice but still worth a look.
But I do understand about the money. I think the same thing about some of the used flatbottoms that are for sale. But the difference is those boats sold for only 4 - 5K new 20 years ago and I see them for that much or way more now.
The last Schiada I saw at the boat show was 140K new and already sold. So with that said 61K is about half off. Better deal then 99% of the used 15 - 20 year old flatbottoms I see. But I'm with ya, no matter how great of a deal it's way out of my price range.
I don't know where all the engine prices are coming from but not from me. I have less then that invested in mine for sure.

Dave, I totally agree. Mine is 32 years old, and probably not the most in-demand hull, and I knew I could not afford a bran new 21RC or fairly new one without a boat payment, But I have always wanted to own a Schiada. It wont look 32 years old when I am done though, plus its kinda fun saving an old boat by puttin one together the way you want it, with all the best parts, a Schaida deserves no less! I am gonna have probably 50K+ in my boat when its done, but its a Schiada, I own it out right, and probaby will never buy another one!
Long live the older Schiada's

[SGettmann]

Riverkid - Sweet Shot!!! I'm getting all fired up and can't wait to get my motor up and running. Look at how smooth that water is - Weight training will be a good session tonight!

[SGettmann]

Hey - what's going on with the bottoms? Noticed no speed coat. Aren't they suppose to blue print the bottoms to take the hook out? Notice how high the 20' is riding in the water. That's like my dad's 20'. At 5K, there's about 6-8 inches under each outer chine.
Corleone - Nice 22'!! The colors look great. Need a big motor to push her, but she looks very sweet. One of my parents neighbors on Nacimiento is selling their 22'. It would need to be completely redone with gel coat and hardware, but a project I have dreamed about. I first need to get my motor situated before taking on any new projects. Do you have any shots of the inside and transom - Again - great job on resurrecting a classic.

I'm dropping Hallet a message - he will be all over these photos.
The hallett setup looks really nice. Motor is sure mounted high. Any side effects of going in the turn and having the hull catch with the higher center of gravity? How's that motor holding up?

[SGettmann]

Another question, in the last photo you posted Riverkid - the one with the yellow and white 21' getting loose - has the bottom been done on that? The bottom on my 21' is blue printed (atleast there is speed coat down), but when I accelerate hard, the boat hops a bit until I hit the caviation overide pedal and settle her down a bit. I'm guessing that I still have a hook in the hull. Is this the side effect. My dad's 20', which was done up by Mitch Lempke at Speed and Marine, floats on air, carries the nose, and never hops. I would like to get mine like that, and I'm trying to figure out if the bottom is the problem and if re-blue printing would resolve my hoping problem.

[SGettmann]

Wow, look at all that air under the oil pan! You could take a mop and clean the bilge.
Hi Scott - yeah, my motor is suppose to look something like that when it's done. I've got some polishing to do, and the all the bolts on the motor need to be stainless. She sure is pretty. Riverkids latest photo shows some chop, so maybe Lee grabbed some air going over a roller.

There you go Hallett - I knew you would be on sooner or later, whether I sent you and email or not!
Yeah, capped looks cool, but at times I wish I had a rubber trim guard. I'm pretty good around docks and such, but every once in a while I nick something. Then again, cleats would be nice to hang bumpers from for tieing up at the marina - but I'm sure as hell not putting those on my boat. I would rather anchore it off and tie the transom with a rope to the dock cleats.

[SGettmann]

SuperDave - what's up with that oil cooler - it has an extra canister attached. Interesting. It's longer than the oil cooler that I have sitting on my shelf next to my stereo in the living room.
Hallett and Riverkid - any pictures that you guys can get this weekend would be fantastic. You guys are just a little closer to the Long Beach Boat Show. When Seattle has it's boat show - I'll get some photos of some sail boats for you :cry: Actually, the Spokane boat show will have your typical family boats by Glastron, Bayliner, and Cobalt. Cobalts - now that's a heavy boat. Pounding on the side of that boat with your hand is nothing like pounding on the side of a Schiada. Would you like some resin some cloth to go with your resin?

[SGettmann]

On another note - I really like the balsa floors. Is that something that can be added to a floor that has been gel coated? At some point, I have a feeling that I'll need to tear out my fiberglass tanks and install GN style metal tanks with the fiberglass wrapper on the outside. When and if I do this, may be a good time to look into adding a balsa floor. Does this add allot of weight to a boat with resin?

[full throttle]

Sick!

[MKEELINE]

Those are some badass set ups! Unbelievably clean.

[SGettmann]

Young Gettmann, on Superdaves picture, one half the cooler is for the tranny, one half is for the oil cooler, Super when you going to have your ride done ???
Scott.
p.s. The 66 boat was previously owned by Boostpower, the 4 I believe is owned by Bertels ?
Young Gettmann - That's funny Scott. It's not too often that I get to walk in my dad's shadow, then again, in the boating world, I will always be in his shadow.
On that tranny cooler, is that just an add on to the oil cooler? I've got the same base cooler in my boat and it would be easier than having the tranny cooler under the motor like it is situated now.

Hey guys I am not talkin sh#t about any boats. I have allways liked Schiadas
but I took a ride in a buddy of mines 26' DCB on Lake Tahoe in terrible water. That boat skated accross it like it was nothing. I don't know, I guess it's all in what floats your boat.

[blackcloud75]

I guess it's all in what floats your boat.
LMAO.............We're not knockin' DCB, they are a quality boat!!!!!!!
Though mbrown2 got rid of his sick ass 26 DCB and wants to get a 21 rc/rt....
You may want to contact him since he has experienced the DCB thang....

[Monkey Bung]

Black,
Its all good. One way or another I am going to be spending a chunk of change!! :cry:

[Beer-30]

Does it absolutely have to be a Schiada? especially since you spelled it wrong?
How about an identical boat:

Are you saying it will eat that 24 all day long or the 21RC's with big motors?
I have had my ass handed to me by a number of RC's on the Parker Strip....too much HP and they can pin it and be gone...and I finally come up to speed 10 seconds later.....they were at 100 about about 15 seconds before me...that's a lot of ground to make up. Now running 15 miles in chop (ie: Havasu Springs to Thompson Bay)....the 26 is gonna be caddy ride and the driver in the 21 would have to be good to stay in it but a 21RC with 1000hp is going out accelerate a 26 all day long. HP to Weight Ratio; the cat wins ....even better if you have two 300x's on back of that Cat...

You have a 26 DCB? The prices on those are ridiculous, don't get me wrong they are awesome boats, just really expensive. I'll bet that 98% of the cost isn't in the materials of that! I did'nt know they built those with a jet, you know, since "JETS RULE". :rolleyes:

[Roaddogg 4040]

I was wondering who thinks a Di Marco is an identical boat to the Schiada's? I have never heard that comparison before.
Steve

[Beer-30]

Just along the same lines, is all I meant. Heavy, deep V, super strong, rough water capable, Similar look. Hallett Vectors, Cheyennes, SKVs, older Howards, Spectras, Campbells. All had a similar look in the day.

Your right I did not know of a jet either, mine has a #6 outdrive. As far as racing NO PROBLEM all day long sipping a martini!!! :rollside:

For 60k, what a smokin deal, and that guy wants a DCB :p Good luck trying to buy a new one for any less than 100k+, wish I could add it to my garage !!

How does the outboard steering turn compared to the inboard. Not a negative question what so ever. I'm just curious where that stems from. Is it a ski racing thing to get the prop out of the way? Either way the rigging is just beautiful. Thanks

[Riverkid]

It's been reported they run a little faster with the OB rudder. I haven't driven this boat so I can't say first hand if the steering is any better or worse.
I'll ask Jeff. :) Sean, do you know?

here's my input to the external rudder - I believe that the more important factor for turning on a Schiada is where the skag is placed on the boat. On my rig, the skag is right under the Vdrive box. On my dad's boat, it's about a foot in front of the VDrive (that's a late Mitch Lempke Special out of Speed and Marine). My dad's 20 has a regular Schiada rudder setup, where I have the external rudder on my 21'. My dad's boat can completely outturn my boat. It also rides much higher in the water than mine. I'm getting used to my turning - slam the override pedal down, plant the nose, and turn. They say external are a bit faster, but I think it depends how much HP you have. I asked Lee this same question in at Schiada, he favored more of the regular ruder assembly at that time - if considering doing, would recommend contacting him for the input. It does look cool and it gets more of the assembly out of the bilge of the boat, which makes a cleaner looking bilge for a ski race boat. Plus with turbos, you have enough hoses and crap everywhere. Taking out the motor is allot more more than on a naturally aspirated carburated motor with a magnito (four bolts, headers off, mount the load balancer, unhook the drive line, and pull out, where with turbos, lots of hoses to disconnent, along with all the listed above - alternator assembly is also a pain - with magnitos, don't need an alternator).
With this, understand that I am still learning allot about this and forming opinions as I go and talk to people with allot more experience than myself.

Is the external steering a Schiada only thing or can this be adapted to other hulls?
Brent

[SGettmann]

SpectraBrent - it can be added to any hull with a transom. I've seen external rudders on lots of different boat makers. See River Kid's posting fromt he LA boat show. There's a flattie with a custom rigged external rudder. Other than looks, I'm not sure if it would be worth the $5K to rerig to an external rudder (this is what I was told it cost by the previous owner of my boat when I purchased her - I don't know how real this was, since at that point we were negotiating across the deck of the boat.) negotiating and playing the game - such a kick in the ass. It's almost like dating. :rollside:

[Riverkid]

New owner should have pulled it back in to Havasu a couple hours ago. IMHO, he got a steal! Jeff said it really hurt a bit to watch them hook it up...
http://www.***boat.com/image_center/data/520/2880DSC02033_Large_.JPG
Clean boat Jeff. Now hurry up and get another one so we can go skiing...

[franky]

What a steal. OK who got it cause I want to check it out in person, and don't tell me it WAS Hallett (Bob).

[Riverkid]

I didn't get the new owner info from Jeff. We saw him towing it out towards Desert Center when we were coming back from Parker this morning... He called later and said it was a done deal... I'm sure the new owner will pop up. :)

[franky]

guess I'll have to get used to having a red one.

[FrznJim]

I spoke with Jeff yesterday, he said the buyers name was Scott and he was from Havasu. Same old story, if you snooze you lose. I wanted to look at it if it didn't sell.

[Hallett]

Im sorry Jeff sold it i think he will really miss that boat.
and i am about 95 % sure i know the new owner if
it is the right scott it is going to a good home & we
will have some fun this summer. frank you should
know think really hard you will figure it out. and
i know he will be on here soon. :)
What a great deal you got scott

[EZE II]

Bob your are about 100% right, It is who you thilnk it is. He's loving it!!!
He stopped at Parker and took it for a run on the way home.

[franky]

Nice!! Now he can go out in a ride that the lake isn't full of. He is gonna love it and I know he will use the heck out of it. Damm.....

[Hallett]

Well then i was right congratulations scott i am glad you got the
boat i know you will be very happy with your new Schiada. when i saw
the new owner name was scott i was pretty sure it was you. :)
what will you do with the DCB.

[mbrown2]

Congrats to the new owner....guess I will just have to keep my eyes open for the next nice one to come along.

[mbrown2]

:) How much ya got $$$, every toy has it's price. :)
Hallett, when you getting your capping done ? Give me a shout this weekend if your not working.
Scott.
Depends on the boat? :)......I thought everyone had its price, but Lee said the one in the lobby at the show was not for sale! :)

[Riverkid]

That boat was just about perfect... Lee was just teasing everybody with it.

[SUPER-V]

Saw Your Request for a Schiada for sale! I was in Boostpower Marine Yesterday and they have a clean 1997 river tunnel with a BP900 Engine in it! There number is 805-376-6077---maybe they can send you digital pics. :boxed:

[SGettmann]

What a way to destroy a kick ass boat, add a stern drive and turn it into an open bow. :cry: I'm in tears. Alexi noted that stern drives are more efficient, but 21' Schiada's are suppose to be V-Drives. Over 21', ok, I'll give it to you, you can have a stern drive.
I'm off to the weight room, crushing the legs tonight, all part of my off season ski training mode so I can go more than 15 minutes on my racing ski this summer. Riding my bike over a 100 miles and running a marathon, no problem. Staying on a racing ski for more than 15 minute, burns like hell, so I 'm trying to fix that problem :rollside:

[Riverkid]

That one's a River Tunnel, Sean... You can put OD's on a RT, it's in the rule book... :)

[franky]

This Schiada (Jeff's) is back on the market. The guy that bought it, Scott, ordered a new one (sick bastard) and is selling this one to pay the DOWN PAYMENT. His cell number is 928-230-1001. Boat is very nice and located in LHC.
