Re: Thad Allen did build a boat
 

is that the one that Steve Koss did? looks like an interesting find

Re: Thad Allen did build a boat
 

Is the hull a plug?

Re: Thad Allen did build a boat
 

oh oh! :eek:

Re: Thad Allen did build a boat
 

i spoke with the individual selling it. he indicated that this is the plug that they built (I thought they cnc'd one..) to be a running boat.
The guy (Martin) was very friendly but not positive on many of the smaller details. This company that is selling the project is tied to Thad's investor (What that means...?) They are apparently selling several items unspecified at this time. The hull has two small steps and no notch (By the pics).
If it's still around at boat show time, I'm gonna take a peak at it.

Over the phone, they'll take 50k. Post cured, foam cored epoxy hull.

Talk about return on investment!!!!! :rolleyes:

Re: Thad Allen did build a boat
 

If it ever gets finished, I'm wondering what an appropriate name would be... maybe Custer's Last Stand? :D

Re: Thad Allen did build a boat
 

Does anyone know how much it would cost (approximately) to finish the hull and deck? Wild Guess? Who would be qualified to do a project like this?

Re: Thad Allen did build a boat
 

The fuel is wrong it has 480 gallons !

Re: Thad Allen did build a boat
 

How about "The 6 million dollar POS"

:eek: :eek: :evilb: :evilb:

Re: Thad Allen did build a boat
 

Do you think the boat can't be finished properly? I was thinking it might make a good project boat.

Re: Thad Allen did build a boat
 

$2.3 million........ remember. :D :evilb: :D

Re: Thad Allen did build a boat
 

I know gasoline is expensive, but 5 gallons and a match is the best way to finish that fiasco.

Re: Thad Allen did build a boat
 

I wonder if the 28 and 36 molds will be poping up for sale here soon. Those are some awsome boats, and it would be a shame if no more where ever made because of this, train wreck.

Re: Thad Allen did build a boat
 

If I had the money I would buy it to add to my mold collection.

Re: Thad Allen did build a boat
 

The guy I spoke with indicated that the investor still had molds in his possession. He was unsure when or even if they would be for sale. Put the word out there. It would be neat if someone bought these and did something with them instead of them sitting in a warehouse for the next ten years...

Mr. 2.3 to you pal!! LMAO :D :D

Re: Thad Allen did build a boat
 

Just another screwed up story in the powerboat industry :rolleyes: :D

Re: Thad Allen did build a boat
 

If the guy isn't in business, why would he keep them? I would believe he should have a price.

Re: Thad Allen did build a boat
 

Call the number and find out. Then let us know.

Of all the Cigarette boats, FOUNTAIN is the fastest.

In your signature above... did you mean:

"fastest to depreciate" or
"fastest brand to be sold for a Cig!!!!!! :evilb: :evilb: :evilb: :evilb: :evilb:

(I give myself 5 stars for that one!!! :D )

...Sorry - just couldn't resist!!!!

Re: Thad Allen did build a boat
 

:rolleyes:

Re: Thad Allen did build a boat
 

Steve what would it take to get it finished? We all know the rigging costs vary widely but you know what it would take to float it.

Re: Thad Allen did build a boat
 

There is a quite entertaining thread over on speedwake about this. It seems that Jayl13 is going to bring it to it's destiny!!

Re: Thad Allen did build a boat
 

Ray Around 4 Weeks to finish the boat with my crew! If everything is as I left it ,All the material was there ! Then Paint and rigging! It was measured for a trailer.

Re: Thad Allen did build a boat
 

The scrapheap?

Re: Thad Allen did build a boat
 

Expert!

Re: Thad Allen did build a boat
 

You and Wilson took Thad for 2.3 Million, now your looking for round 2.

There is a sucker born every minute....and two Steve's to take him

Re: Thad Allen did build a boat
 

That is a God dam FILTHY LIE and Libel !! Thad was a friend as well and no-one took anything not even a bolt, To make your jealous little schoolboy rant plausible there had to be boxes of money just sitting around there BTW I will talk to you at the boat-show!

Everything there was budgeted and Thad wrote ALL the checks ,there were people from the NY end there as-well and Mr Allen's personal accountant ..Also I am still on friendly terms with Thad Allen !! THE reason is I never stole from him and he trusted me!

BTW what fool put you up to this??You can't possibly be that dumb!!

Re: Thad Allen did build a boat
 

What a rant!
I will bet you $10,000 dollars Thad's boat will beat any Apache Miami to Bimini and back! Any Takers? It will be ready in 90 days!
Remember that one?
Face it, you and Wilson took him good. All that's left is the bones. When I see you at the show, don't try to sell me a T shirt.

Re: Thad Allen did build a boat
 

Hey drop dead Lying filthy scumbag!



This is not fair and really pisses me off how can someone just post friccin lies.... who would not be even fit to sweep up after us and then call me a thief, A bad move Ace!! First off when I got hired a crew destroyed the Hull Plug down in Miami and Thad was in tears when he showed it to me. We got the plugs back on track..

and started a boat.it was decided to have a modern bottom which fell on me to design remember like I said before these things hang out for years as an example of the builders work. Also a NEW bottom never seen before and safe at that !!had to be designed! Again that was my job! I know you are a expert!! Here eat a box of this!!
