Seems kinda neat

Don't see too many of those arond(check the thread on the steam powered AT)

I know Pat had one of those as his personal boat for a bit, but it was all white when I saw it. Guess they made some others.

That is cool, but is it the same hull?

That would actually be a fun boat for around here, we do mostly lunch runs down the ICW, and sandbar runs. I realize this isnt really an ocean runner, but would do GREAT for our Keys trips.

I'm pretty sure they are both 22' DDC AT's.

That would make a cool little Rivah rocket. Wish I had run across this before I bought the Jetboat.

Do I build anything BUT ocean runners? :drink:

How many of those 22s did you build ?

He built 4 including Harry's. This boat is the white/blue one in the video.

needs some solid engine mounts, that outboards dancin!

Glad you had that video, now where is the one with Harry running his out there with the big boys:drink:

Oh how I wish I had the cash lay'n around, I would be all over that, but I really want an I/O.
What a way cool little ride.

Somehow I knew you werent going to like that comment, and prove me wrong:eek:

What kind of speed does it see with the 200??

Brian,

are you saying it is the same boat, just repainted??

That little rocket is just too freakin' cool. My wife would shoot me if I bought another boat, Anyone in the market for a "slightly" used 24 pantera with amerc 250EFI??:eek::drink::evilb:

Yep, same boat--repainted. It used to do 70+ when fresh.

Damn I want this thing, Probably run 80 with my modded Merc 250:lolhit:

Now I'm actually going to have to stop and look at it up close! Can't tell you how many times I've driven by and caught it out of the corner of my eye.

Brian, you said you'd trade the Mini for one of these... :D

Never meant to prove you wrong. But you know me so why would you expect anything less than me in the ocean running the crap out of any size boat? :kiss::evilb:

Ya gotta admit the little boat is badazz! I really enjoyed it. I build it to take the kids tubing and skiing on Lake Osbourne/ Ida.

Remind me to tell you about the time I left the drain plugs out.....:eek:

My thoughts too, the first time I saw the video. I never looked back.

I thought the powerhead was gonna be an anchor! I just don't do enough outboards to know right from wrong.

Didn't AT offer a free one some time ago for ...... (can't remember why)..here on OSO.

Cool ride that is for sure.

The Mini is now for sale. :D

Is that Don Johnson driving in the video :lolhit:? Steve

I wish someone would pull the the trigger on an outboard 33 or 37. They would make a sweet and fast ride.

I told Tami today the mini would be for sale before the weekend was over :lolhit:

I am just joking about the proving me wrong part Pat, I would NOT expect anything less from you, but you got a bigger set than me, I dont like rough water in a little boat, gimme a 35 foot plus boat for the rough anyday:drink:

That must have been a trip on Osbourne/Ida, when I first moved down here I had a 23 Wellcraft bowrider that I just bought, and didnt trust it in the ocean, I ran Osbourne a half a dozen times before I felt it was ready for a run in the salt, and every time, the sheriff, and the waverunners kept a close eye on me, those lakes is kinda small. First time in the Ocean was Air and Sea Show(wife got seasick), we ran down from Hillsboro, and on the way back got passed by the Cat5 Skater, and Met Tim Galagher in his 28 Pantera, I was hooked, and sold the Wellcraft almost immediately:evilb:

Tell me you didnt leave the plug out, thats amateur stuff:party-smiley-004:

As soon as I win the Powerball I will be knocking on Pat's door:drink:

Well, Clark and I checked it out and seatrialed it today.

It handles pretty well, We ran it up to about 55mph on the pitot speedo, and only on the intracoastal. There was a storm offshore and we were getting rain where we were.

I really like the boat, but I'm not going to purchase it right now. I've got too much going on to enjoy it the way I would want to.

I've got too much going on right now too, to consider buying this boat. So I did'nt bother taking it for a demo ride.

Seriously--what's up with a comment like that? I went over the boat very closely; and may not have made a final decision. Truth be told there are several OSO members that are interested in the boat that I am providing feedback to.

:lolhit::lolhit::coolcowboy:

I've got too much going on right now to deal with internet instigators.

Brian send me the details on it please.

The boat needs a 300XS and a hyd. Jackplate to really see what the hull is capable of...the Yamaha power may be reliable but it's gonna take a black motor to see any real top end speed!!

A 300 XS would be sweet!

That would be SICK!!!!!!!! I can picture running the from Caribean club to the sandbar in that rig with a 300XS:drink:
