Thread: Reverse 3 point hull

  1. #1

    Met a very nice older gentelman today, Art Carlson. He has been in the boat building since the 50's. The boat I followed through town is a little odd. Art said he has worked with Glasstron, Reggie Fountain & Dick Barron from Hallett just to name a few. (I forgot the rest) This hull is 33' with a 11.5' beam. He claims it runs in the 70's with a stock 454 mag. Not to bad.

    WOW, that is ONE UGLY BOAT! The front half reminds me of the big Bajas with their bubble-like decks.
    Art designed Hallet's 260 AC. That's what the AC is for, Art Carlson.

    Hallet has had a hull similar to that (260AC??) for a few years and there were some pretty decent reviews for it.
    Funny looking to me, but if it works....

    Very nice guy. It's a sport fishing boat. It's not going to look good.

    The Starcraft CSS isn't extremely dissimilar to that, either.
    ... another Art Carlson design.

    I'd love to meet him. I wonder how he would feel about the modifications I made to my CVX-16. I'll bet he would be curious enough to want a shot at the controls.

    It wouldn't be right for me to cold call him. If you have contact with him again, maybe mention the guy who put a modified Merc 260 on a rebuilt and beefed up CVX-16.
