My brother said they have a 40-something going on at the moment, he stopped by the factory awhile back.

I was just wondering what molds they got their hands on to do it, my original guess was maybe the Chief/Saccenti mold.

From what I heard, there is an outside investor that is bank-rolling quite a bit of the first few boats.

I'd love to see some pics of that in progress.

Sounds interesting?...............

Would love too see them build a 32 to 36 CC. Their 25 CC looks great. I have owned 3 Checkmates in the past. I'm now in the market for a CC and would love to OWN another Checkmate.

Contact them. How about a 34' CC? It may be possible.

No has nothing to do with the Skater tooling .

Building a bigger boat you ask?
 
Besides an all new deep performance hull design 26 Convincer coming out late this fall,
you might see something else from Checkmate that will just blow you away at the Miami Boat Show in February.

Been wondering if a thread had been started yet. :party-smiley-004:

BUP 09-20-2011 05:57 PM

Last year they had a twin step 36 what happen to that?
I think they only had one built. I also heard a twin step 38 being built now.

fireguy 09-20-2011 06:41 PM

Didn't know they built a twin step 36? They don't advertise anything other than the ZT350 which is the Baja 342 mold, I think. That is a straight bottom right?

Are there any pictures of the twin step boat? There was aboslutely no mention of it on the Checkmate owners forum that I can recall. I would love to see a big boat from Checkmate.

BUP 09-20-2011 08:41 PM

Google - Checkmate boats 36 twin step or 2010 Checkmate 36 twin step.

Last year it was listed with pics and even sitting in the water from a dealer in Middletown PA. the problem now is it takes you to a listing of a 36 Pantera. Again last year pics / listing was of a 2010 36 Checkmate Twin Step.

I also know Pantera boats when I see one so have no idea how this Checkmate with photos & listing turned into the 36 Pantera. Maybe someone with the info will chime in.

That was last year. My bet is the one being discussed here is a different boat. Maybe :party-smiley-004: :D
