43' Doug Wright " Purgatory"
 
I don't think any pictures have been posted of this boat yet.

It's a 43' Doug Wright closed canopy with full carbon fiber layup, 4 seats, 1000hp blower motors, Arneson surface drives, air conditioned cockpit, onboard camera system, cd/dvd player etc etc.

The boat looks very nice! Is it going to race? And is the 34' for sale?

It's a pleasure boat that will make appearances at Poker Runs.

The 34' is indeed for sale... [email protected]

Dale's boat turned out really nice. Tommy's motors should make it reliable and fast.

ThoroughHustler 02-07-2009 01:29 PM

how does that boat handle compared to the Mti's and the skater? What kind of speed is it getting with that power? what kind of drives does it have?

All I know is it has my Arnesons, my Rudder and Steering along with my Vertical Trim Cylinders.

It has a pair of motors that Tommy @ Chief has worked on to make right.

Initial reports are the boat runs great, steers great also. I think Dale says they have been 165+ with 1,000 hp engines.
