Pretty straight forward, true statement, wasn't aimed at any particular person. I bet the Merc powered Hustler impresses us all, Smitty

So congrats to Hustler, Merc. and the Owner of the boat !! I also have no doubt in my mind, and common sense tells me that it will be a Great performing boat, not to mention that I would nearly give my Lt. nut to have it.. However I just don't get the pissing match & thread chasing thats been going on by some lately.. ??

I had the privilege of watching Eric's 39 Rockit and engines both progress along as they were being built (just as I have several of the other boats you guys seem so concerned, about and "seem" to have so much "firsthand" knowledge of) I also know for a fact that both Hustler & YPM both turned out an Incredible product once Again.. Not to mention that Eric couldn't be happier with his ride, and is a complete Class act !!! What gets me is the absolute lack of class & blatant attack on some other peoples part.. I have no idea if the owner of this particular 39 is a member here, or is reading any of this, ect.. ect.. but I'm guessing (and again, just a guess) that none of the people that seem to be so concerned have a horse in the race ???

"We all know in the end that how fast a boat ultimately runs is the real proof of how much REAL power a motor really makes. In the end if the boat doesn't run the number the customer wants the exscuses begin!!" As for this statement I'm curious who these people are that are so disappointed in how their boats are performing ?? Off the top of my head, and in just the past few days I have seen where you guys have mentioned Eric S.'s 42 Fountain, Eric's 39 Hustler, and the 399 Skater-V, and how certain people have tried to imply that they didn't perform as the customers expected.. Go ahead & find where any of those 3 that you guys have mentioned in another thread are bitc-ing about how their boats are either currently performing, or performed..??

I speak for me & me Only, so it is what it is, and will be taken however it's taken.. But when people do their best to attempt to dis-credit, or tear apart somebody who I have known firsthand over the past 5 orso years to continually bust his azz the way he does for his family, his friends, and give the time he does to help people out, while consistently making the sacrafices it takes to deliver a product to HIS CUSTOMERS at the level he does it's quite sickning to say the least..

I appologize in advance if some of my responce seems irrelevant to this thread, as a good bit of it is a responce to the b.s. thats been dished out.. However this thread got pretty jacked up real quick, so no real loss...

Now not all of them (not referring to Big E's Hustler for sure) ran so great and chine walked like a mofo but it was FAST without a doubt! Kudos to anyone in any market that has repeat business and I can think of two in Nashville that have a very loyal following and I say nothing but congratulations to them both as we are lucky to have both YPM and EB here to choose from! All the rest are just "keyboard cowboys" trying to make a few waves so enjoy your boats gentlemen because we sure do...

Its pretty obvious when certain people go out of their way to bad mouth other builders, that those individuals are only taking desperate stabs at satisfied customers who are very happy with the product that their builder has produced. I for one, am one of those satisfied customers.

Now, dont get me wrong, Eddie is one ate up Cajun Mo-Fo ...but the dude has been nothing but up front and honest with me to date, and despite what others may think, he has produced an end result which exceeded my expectations.

Just takes a little time, it did run 132 mph first time out which wasn't to bad. When we get everything done you can drive down and go for a ride and video the ride yourself if you like Custom! I'll even throw you a steak on the grill for you, how would you like it cooked? My cell number is 615-351-1433, call me anytime brother!
