I added an extra zero in the headline. It's been changed in the headline but not in this one. Thanks for the help, Terry Sobo.

That is absolutely awesome! #100 runs 100! :D
I have loved that boat since hull #1 and it has clearly saved Nortech as a high performance builder. I think when my powerball money comes in I will have to order one just to be this guy at the fishing tournaments: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p_R1aBoRAAY Are those rentals? You wearin' weldin' goggles? |
Sy,
Do you feel that it is a good idea for a center console with no way to secure it's passengers to hit triple digits? I don't mean to come across as a possibly" jealous boat builder" since I won't enter this market. However I see the same disasters with more casualties as the Cats running big numbers from the last few years. Now we have multiplied the passengers ten-fold. Pat

The good news is that this boat can be insured with our center console program rates not high performance.The TOTAL DOLLAR exclusive program can insure up to 130 mph and our carrier is an A rated,domestic,admitted US company. (NOT LLOTDS OR SURPLUS LINES).

Pat That LOTO Fountain didn't do real good with 7 aboard with Capt ThrottleMaster Your new 29 with the open cockpit concept wouldn't be great either with 6-8 aboard at 70 mph in the event of a crash. Atleast in the Nortech the first 6 would be in a bolster. |
Sorry I digressed, but I would never recommend 6-8 aboard an AT at 70 either. 70 is not 100.
I simply am voiceing that it is bothersome to me to imply this is safe, I advertise with Matt to the tune of $5k per year. He reports the news without opinion. But an insurer condoning this seems questionable. "The good news is that this boat can be insured with our center console program rates not high performance.The TOTAL DOLLAR exclusive program can insure up to 130 mph...." Let me know when you want to go that fast hanging on to an arch and a grab handle.

Yep, Nate. And I disagree that is ok, too.

If you can insure an i/o boat with no seat straps, I see no reason not to insure a CC. I can pack a cockpit on a top gun or AT with as many as people are ok with it for the trip and be covered.
