It is not a splash and it took me 10 years to bring it together.
The plug for the mold was cut out with a CNC machine. It is perfect! The infusion process makes the hull 70% fiberglass infused with high density foam core and 30% resin. A hand laid boat or vacuumed bagged boat is at best 60% RESIN and 40% fiberglass. This hull is produced with the best technology available for a boat like this right now.

You are entitled to your opinion on the wind screens. They weren't cheap however.

Where is your expertise? How many boats have you built?

P.S. The infusion process is what makes the boat worth more. The NADA value is 1.3 million.

It is all rumors.

I sold Profile in 2004 and the 500 boats I built before that , never had a hull failure. I also noted someone on here claiming to be a previous owner of Profile? I was the only one before I sold the company.

Since 2004 I have no control over what takes place with Profile, but if I had a bunch of unhappy customers before that, I certainly would know about it.

Very sincerely,

Randy Schultz

I didn't leave Profile. I sold it for a fantastic price. I had 25 good years with no complaints from my customers.

Default FYI Mercury thinks our boat is GREAT!

I think all these guys building 40 cats and pricing them with skater and MTI are forgetting the history, track record, ride, build quality and background that comes with a price tag like that.
We tested the boat from the Miami Show at the Mercury X site right after the show and they liked the boat. They were also impressed during the test when the 2nd boat (blue/black one now in Dubai) was able to get up on plane with one 700 engine! (One side ran out of fuel while testing) In fact they liked the first one we tested in Fon Du Lac so much that they not only put us in their Calendar, (February Month) but they posted our boat on an 8 foot mural in their booth in Miami.

Randy, I'm glad they liked your boat and my comment in no way was meant to be disrespectful. I still take issue with them giving an award to a manufacturer that has only built two boats and is brand new on the scene. That is the only issue I take with that. I believe after being on the scene for a few years and proving what you’re made of comes first before awards are handed out. Like I said, I have nothing against Extreme mag, I actually enjoy their magazine greatly. And in regards to pricing, I think boat pricing in general is out of hand. Up in the million dollar purchase price for a 40 cat is ridiculous for any cat let along one that has no proven history in my opinion.

I have nothing against you or your boat. I’ve never seen your boat in person and I’ve never dealt with you personally or through business. It’s always refreshing when a company owner comes and faces the issues head on. I wish you the best of luck and hopefully the rumors that are running rampant on this thread can be either righted or resolved.

Now bring that thing out to the Havasu poker run so I can look at it first hand!

Randy you asked for it.

I will flat out call you a LIER. I was one of your customers. I had a 2000 Profile sent it to you twice in 2000 and 2001 for what you called warranty hull repairs from bad glass work. You never fixed it right, just covered it up with more bad repairs. I complained to your manager and was told you never even seen my boat repairs, but you had the nerve to send me a letter stating you seen all the repairs an the boat is fine. I still have your letter. I also have the bills I paid from others that did the stringer repairs, small hull cracks, engine hatch cracks to name just a few problems. So don't come here thinking continued lies will not bite you in the butt. Other Profile owners have stated the same problems with your great customer service here.

I am gald you sold it for good moneyand I have no problem with that. But when you say that you were in bis 25 yrs without complaints that is not true and you know it. Think back to about 1995/96 when I made the mistake of buying a 27 from you and the year of hell I went through trying to make it right so I could get rid of it. I made 2 trips to the middle of nowhere Iowa from N.Y. only to find that I got screwed both times. Or how about the 26 that was here 1995 I believe that the deck seperated and you told the guy it was his fault for running it in to rough of water,( on our little inland lake) that one went on for awhile and I lost track of it.(stiched on the engine hatch it said Profile Offshore Performance Boats---Ya right ) How about the 29 that had a floor like a tramaline when you stood between the bolsters they pinched togeather, your answer drill holes and blow foam in it. Look I could go on and on but it is useless I just wish there was someplace like OSO back then because I wouldn't have made the god awful mistake that I did and if someone ask's I will tell them the truth about my experince with you and your boats.
