As a Checkmate owner I would like to commend and congratulate Bill Combs for a great product and one hell of a run for Checkmate Powerboats if indeed the company is changing hands.

Not to be confused with his brother Samuel, he was probably the one on your mind, he makes your speech slurr and your vision blurry.

This is just what Checkmate needed!! They build an incredibly nice boat but they need some freshening in the design department.
Doug Smith will make the necessary changes to the molds to bring the great company up to date.
I can't wait to see what they do!!!
GOOD LUCK!
