Maybe because it is no longer a company. The boat could be had for peanuts.

I don't know anything about that boat, but C_SPRAY has a B-28. He took me on a poker run with him and what a blast!!! Check out his site for pics of his boats. There are some real nice shots.

Re: whats the story with this BATBOAT?

The ride was Awsome, On flat water it was like riding on air, in the rough stuff it was exciting, We ran up on a huge wake once and... lets just say the "wings" are functional My back was fine.

my ride was during a poker run so when it was tight and chopopy the boat seemed to dance on top of the wakes.
