For 500,000$ for a boat that runs 85...there is ALLOT out there at this price point. Good luck, but less than stellar numbers....

madjatter42, there may be faster boats out there for the money but none as big as the 43' punisher. That's 43' of real boat length...no swim platforms, beaks, drive covers, etc. Furthermore, the 43' punisher is far from being dialed in...the boat has only seen water for the first time a few weeks ago!! I'm positive when all is said and done the boat will break 90mph. As far as i'm concerned there are very few (if any) true 43' boats that are brand new that could compete with checkmate's retail price of $499.00. I hope checkmate sells a bunch of them!! It's cool to see checkmate enter the "big" boat game. Their small outboard boats (like the pulsare 2100 & 2400) are fantastic!!!
