What would you expect to Pay $$$
For a 44 foot ( Real 42 ft hull ) offshore pokerrun boat that would run 110+mph all day long in most any water conditions and not break down.Trying to get a feel for a fair price price that one would pay for one. I know what Fountain,Outerlimits,Cig,Donzi all are priced at and I just can't seem to justify the pricing especially now that we have almost completed the SL44 and know what it cost's to build one out of aluminum anyway and I would think it would cost less in fiberglass .Yes it cost's a lot to build a large twin engine boat but what I am seeing at the boats shows is crazy !!!!! These guys must be getting RICH !!!!! Ya ! we would like to get those kind of prices but comeon!!!!! We will be new on the block so I know we have to offer some good pricing . I want to be able to keep our base pricing under$ 300,000.00 for a 120+mph boat and maybe $ 250,000. for just a 100+mph boat.
Of course all the testing is not complete so will have to wait a little while but I do expect to be able to make those speeds and pricing. Any thoughts would be of great value.
Thanks Wayne

Wayne,
It's really hard to say. The boat you have been building looks great! BUT, it doesn't have a history, or any history to base a price or reliability factor on.

Re: What would you expect to Pay $$$
I agree there is no history on this boat and that boats would be the last place to invest. While my son in law has a great history building the River Wild Boats and is very sucessfull these new boats are a different story. Guess I shouldn't be so excited about this new boat its just comming along so well I can't help it !!!!!.Thanks forall the good feeback everyone .How it performs
will goe long way in determining its marketability.

If results from testing are on the upside I say LOW BALL
everybody Im sure you would have plenty of
orders from OSO'ers looking for an "AFFORDABLE" boat
that puts up serious numbers and that can give the big
players a run for the money.
So all (buying) eyes on you.
I personally would love to see a "32' SL Rockit" w/500's,525's,575's etc.
w/ B-Max or ASD bravo conversions.
Ill take my "32 SL Rockit" w/ these mils please

We have a 32 designed now and our research at this time says 100 + mph with twin 500hp. But of course that has not been proven yet. The motors you linked two look good but I could offer the same HP motors with single carbs and a warrenty without having to maintain a blower. Wouldn't it be nice to show your INS company a pair of single carbs instead of a blower and run on pump gas.I here B-Max has a drive out that will handle 950hp with a warrenty I have contacted them about there drives. I want to sell a boat that you can run year after year and not be breaking down and have the speed and performance ,I know why would I build something that will last oh! what was I thinking !!!!!
