New Conquest / No Regrets

[revpuffdaddy]

Should have my new Top Cat II on the water by mid April! We are really excited. Here are are couple pictures of it just outof the mold.

And one other!

The grafix kick ass, great job.

[revpuffdaddy]

Thanks, wish I could take the credit! My wife designed the graphics. I also think it's killer...but I am also very partial!

[OutCole'd]

What are you going with for power?

[Toomstone]

what made you choose the conquest over the magic and eliminator deckboat?

[revpuffdaddy]

I am going with the 496HO. Just couldn't justify an extra $12,000 for the 500HP and only 4 to 5 MPH extra? At some point you have to draw the line...right?
I chose the Conquest for several reasons. First, I really liked the Top Cat II and the two forward facing seats. (Driver and shot gun seat) My wife really wanted her own seat that faced forward. So, that eliminated the eliminator!!! Magic builds a fine boat, but as I looked at the final construction of both the Magic and Conquest I felt the Conquest had better fit and finish. I wrode and drove both and the Conquest felt stiffer and definitley did not rattle like the Magic. Again, both are good boats. Lastly, as I have stated prior on these boards.....Keith Sayre did everything he promised and more. I wanted to buy from Keith.
Can't wait till mid April.

Nice Puff, I like your rig. I have the 496HO also on my DCB26, I got it ready for a whipple or pro charger. I will be getting that soon. I got the XR drive I got all the extra gauges and they did the water and the hoses. I also have external steering on one side. It might be something to think about. I am very glad I spent the extra dollars at the build.
Good luck and we shall see you at Havasu!! :D :D
keep the pictures coming, no one gets sick of anyones new rig as it's getting built:D :D :D

[revpuffdaddy]

Thanks CEO,
I will be taking more pictures this weekend. I have the boat set up for external steering and Pro Charger at a later date. I remember seeing the pictures of your new DCB. Very nice boat! See you in Havasu.

RE: Got to draw the line somewhere
Why and why start now?
Bigger, Better with absolutely no regard to the cost or consequence at home!!!:D :D :D

[Charley]

Great Graphix! Congrads and the 496 is a good choice ;) correct me if I'm wrong but you can still bolt some stuff on later (end of warranty) to make it go faster ;)

[revpuffdaddy]

Absolutley....Pro charger with minimum boost gives the 496HO about 625 / 650 H.P. Keith Sayre says that they have several Top Cats with 496 H.O. and Pro Charger that push low 80s? We will let the factory warranty run out first!

[Dave C]

Nice boat!:D
Too much blower boost can be hazardous to your 496. Do some motor work (i.e. pistons & valves) or keep the boost low to keep it reliable.
"draw the line somewhere" thats some funny sh*t. accurate but funny nonetheless

Nice looking boat...congrats!

[syke-o]

great looking boat!! keep us posted on the progress...

[Toomstone]

That page you were on where you got the link from, just right click on the picture then properties and copy that link.
The link you had was more like a holder for the picture not the actual picture.;)

[Toomstone]

Thanks again bigq! I tried it on the test forums and it worked like you said. Thanks for the help

[dimarcobros]

Congrats on your new boat, you will not regret it. We got our Top Cat II a couple of months ago and love it. The people over at Conquest are a pleasure to deal with, especially Keith.

[Mr. Naudio]

Seen that Conquest today.
Very nice looking boat.
Gotta wonder why the 6x9,s under the rear bench?
In this model boat there is more than ample room
to mount speakers up high on sides.
The imaging will be not so good with some firing front to back and some left to right.

We have A LOT of new Magic and Conquest deckboats in here. Maybe we should have a little deckboat regatta???!?!?
