Yep the lines/looks of the 28 Challanger is very nice. It is a big 28 too. I know Challanger was a lot more popular in the midwest and the only one I saw was the 1999 E Class race boat. It was fast...faster than the 26 Scarab I had at the time and it was built a lot better too. AJ Smith was the driver.
I wonder where the molds are and if anyone will use them to build boats?

Did Fountain do any of the design work on these boats? I'm not seeing any resemblance

I don't think Fountain had anything to do with Challenger Boats.

No...Harry Schol designed the hull. It is called a DDC ( Duo Delta Conic).

We have a Challenger DDC 33 and we love it!!! Best riding and handling boat we ever owned!

Sweet ride

Thanks Dykstra, Just spent 7 days down at LOTO over the 4th of July. Damm thats a rough lake, but the boat handled well. Had a great week down there.

Hey Therapy Session --- I think that boat of yours looks familiar.

You know... this year my old patroil boat could only "run with you"... but next season.... Your gonna be drinking spray... that is if I dont spin out!

I bought 2 boats from a marina that won a few national championships in a challenger. The guy who owned the marina was the throttle man when they raced. He said it was the best boat hull he had ever run and he has driven a lot of performance boats.
I also saw a gold one with a great paint job at the Chicago boat show a few years ago. The boat good and the company people at the booth were really nice.
