Clean rigging is a great custom touch. Nobody likes looking at a rats nest of wires and hoses!!

Love the boat, I had a few Check's when I was younger and had a ton of good luck and great times with all of them. Keep up the good work and keep us posted.

Seems to be an all around sweet boat. Wish it could break 100mph since some other similiar size boats do. But at least it broke 90mph! Hurray!

Boat looks awesome, hopefully handles awesome, priced fair, and runs decent. Checkmate did a great job and theres no reason they should not sell a few of these.

Wonder if a #6 drive on that NXT transom would gain any speed?

Once it sellls you just have to talk the owner into some heli videos of the boat jumping some waves and dominating the rough! If Checkmate supplies the chopper its a no brainer for both sides.

Good luck selling LOTS of these sweeet boats!

Correct me if I'm wrong here...but I was under the impression that the Punisher was owned by Bill Wright not Jeff? How do you get to Run an awesome machine like that??

It is a in stock inventory boat.

The boat is a cool project but it seems like the momentum/excitement has lessened. Maybe Seely-Wright should make a video of the boat running.......that would get people going!
Just a thought-

+1

For a large offshore performance boat, seems like video of it cutting up Lake Michigan would really help its cause. C'mon, Checkmate! :D

Is this the boat in the classifieds??

Yep that would be it
