The cool script with the sword passing thru the name.
They copied the ones off my boat when it was stored near their shop. The finished up the design, but I haven't had them printed out yet, because, my boat isn't ready for the new stickers.
If they don't know what you are talking about tell them
they have the file saved under "boat stuff" or something.

Mr Excal. Thanks for the info. I will email Don.. That should be interesting.
Actually, I took these pics myself just last summer and fall. Don't know what pics you saw, but I bought it from a Broker who brought it up from FLA. You may have seen one of his ads. I've got in near Cape Cod now.

Mr.Excal,
Actually, Im not Positive about the beam. One of the problems is that its got double walled sides. So my initial measurment of 6-6 1/2' is the inside deck space. The overall Beam from outer skin to outer skin, Port to sarboard very well could be 7....7.5 could be a stretch. Thats my ONLY complaint about the boat so far.
Most of the time I'll be running from Cape Cod to the Vineyard to Newport, however, Fishing out in big water could be a challenge. All I can visualize is a 27' foot long popcile stick sitting at idle and getting thrashed around....whats your expectation of this hull at idle in the chop??

Shark 2 , amazingly my 24' X 6'5" sits nicely in moderate chop. The only side to side rocking that could be considered uncomfortable is someone else's wake hitting me broadside. That 27 hull is very strong also. I was in a decked outboard version back in 1980 and we hit a seawall in Ft Laud. and broke the boat in three piece's and she stayed together and afloat for almost 4 hours before swamping. Idle fishing in 1 to 3 foot rips should not be too bad.

No book just this site.

I agree with you, Dave.
I own a 32' executioner (1981) it was built in late 1980, one of Reggie's creations, it was one of the powerboat test boats equipped with twin turbo 454's and ssm #2's. I've since re-powered with a pair of 900sc's and ssm 3a's. the boat is fast even by todays' standards. They still are great boats and quite timeless as far as sex appeal is concerned!!!

What history does anyone have about the 38'. My uncle had one in the mid-eighties and I loved it. It was Black with triple gold stripes "Exotic Rascal" I think it went to Texas as a trade for a 50' Profil Hawk.
