New 24 Schiada

[SPUDWIG]

Just hit the water in October. She is hitting 80mph with only a merc 525. Lee Spindler raised the x dimension to lighten her up. We are still playing with propellers. We rigged the engine compartment in birdseye maple, Stan at Schiada did an amazing job.

Now that is a boat. Doesn't get much sexier than that.

The bottom looks like a Howard 22 Offshore?

Yes we were testing a couple of props, had a great time skiing. The water was awesom. Tried to sneek and got pulled over. They had us on radar. Lifeguard boat let us off with a warning. Were you also out there?

Thanks. The extension box and steering works really well. We were out in havasu in 30 to 40mph winds. It was very impressive, it was very comfortable at 45 to 50mph. Could not believe how stable she was, no problem. There was nobody out there to play with, everyone decided to stay in the channel. It is so nice to be able to enjoy the lake when it is blown out, my previous boat was a schiada 20 vdrive, I have always wanted a 24. Hope to see you out there our next trip will be in April.
