w3,
Norther Offshore is right. They were built in Shiwano or Shauno (sp?) Wisconsin. 93-95 or 94-96, I dont quite remember. I was also told they are based off of an eliminator. I also boat primarly on Lake Michigan, and did with that boat. Give me a call at 847-613-7319 and I can tell you a hand full of things to look for. Overall, it was great boat..

Eliminator purchased the building from my father. We had a little Chevrolet delaership. I believe is was called Eliminator East. I think Eliminator left after a few years and maybe sold some molds to the people who stayed in the building, I think starting Obsession..

eventfull day
Well drove 3 hours to detroit and the boat was not what I expected. I had him talked down in price pending a sea trial. The motor was built and ran strong in his shop. We got out on the lake, there was maybe 1' chop on lake st. clare and coming up on plane we got sprayed 3 times. That all was ok I could deal with that. Well we were cruising 60 for maybe 2 minutes and the supply hose for the cooling fell off. My brother in-law smelled the rubber first so I quick pulled her back and shut the motor off. Opened the engine compartment and the exhaust boots were on fire, my first though was great now I get to go swimming. Owner quick grabbed the extinguisher and put them out, thankfully. We hooked the hose back up and limped her back in. Needless to say I did not drag a boat home today.
