Liquid glass
Did anyone see the Liquid glass boats yet?? Looks like a neat boat from the write up in Extreme.. Seems to be pretty light to for a 41' @ 9k lbs.. Should be pretty quick.. Jamie

There just finishing the 2nd one 700s Colors blue and black
3rd is getting 850s for mercury |
It looks like they will all be built to order from what the mag said, but I wonder how many a yr they are anticipating building? J
|
They are just pulling hull #4 this week the second is going to mercury to get dialed in
|
Is the hull a splash of something else?
|
Nice Looking!

The price is overboard imo... When you can pick up a new 40 MTI 6 seater with 700's and NXT's for under a half a mill.

How fast does it run with a pair of 700's?

40 MTI new 6 seater with 700's/NXT -- 499k, pier 57 and ask for Frankie, he'll set you up, and yes 700k is crazy for an unproven boat, can't imagine how they could sell one. nowhere near as good looking as an MTI

Well according to the Extreme article, Profile going big time 'production' too many boats built and him losing 'control' is why Randy got out of Profile 3 years ago. Don't know any history with Profile, but his comments regarding new boat Co. Liquid Glass is .. they will be for a very particular, discerning customer. He said he will NOT build for someone with a deadline :eek: "You can't rush these things" And also mentioned he was not looking to squeeze every last MPH out of his hulls, like other cats out there. Safety and amenities is what he is striving for.
Pricey and long build times, but hopefully a good product when all said and done. :drink: I tip my hat to them and wish them all the best! :cool: |

No different then other manufactures. Also a few good points on making boating more reliable, less costly by smaller insurance premiums using Merc 600sci, 700sci motors vs 850's, 1075's and 1200's offered in some of the other manufactures boats. Miami boat show debut... |
Good Luck to anyone that buys one.... From my own dealings with him I learned the hard way that he would never---- never get another dime from me. Lieing- cheating- thief. And I don't wish him luck with this new company.:mad:

Man whats up with the profile guys, have heard numerous bad stories, what was the primary complaint against them, How can they sale boats with so many unhappy customers

I guess that would be a small market, rich and stupid |

I think it looks ugly....The inside looks cheap......That is a market that cant be tapped.....(skater,nor tech,mti) what is that guy thinking...
|
When I saw the article, I thought the boat was really looking good! Don't know about this guy and the Profile history but I definatly like the look!
|
He said he will NOT build for someone with a deadline
Between all the Profile horror stories and that deadline quote, I wouldn't touch it. Leopards don't change their spots. |
There has to be more to this story than we know. He didn't leave Profile for the reasons he said. His production was not that high... There are way to many holes in his stories. I have heard to many myself. But I can't wait to see this all unfold and I am sure it won't take long.

hey guys,
From a personal stand point here i can say myself after spending countless hour designing and building the interior for this company, with our company..this is a far more advance and complex interior you will find in most boats no detail left un touched. so before bringing it down give it a real first hand look for yourself not just threw a magizine picture. sit in it. feel it like i said no detail missed.. and ill shake the persons hand who can tell me how the rear bench is built:D |

The windscreens look cheap.
It seems as thought he brought this boat to market pretty quickly... is it a splash? Anyone take a ride yet? |

Seen some pic's of the "Liquid Glass" on another Thread which was on General Boating Discussion. Pic's from the Miami Boat Show. Looked pretty nice.
|
OHHHHHH WEEEEEEEE.
Get the voodoo doll out! |
I looked over the boat hard in maimi didnt get in it but looked at it for a while, they have some issues that they are ging to have to address, look in the photo in # 34 at where the pins for the bumpers are, bescides having to stand on our head to put in a pin, they look like they are so low to the water that they wold get broke off by a dock anyways! just my.02
|
oh btw, if I knew 700 was the price tag I wouldnt of even wasted my time looking at it, thats a crazy price tag!!!!!!!!
