Bingo!
We are doing a full weekend on our 25 foot Checkmate at Lake Erie this weekend.
A well done thirtyish boat of similar style, outboard powered would be tough to beat!
As your post says, it would check a lot of boxes.
And twin 400’s would probably make it a 90 mph boat.
Looking forward to the full story on the boat.
I was in their factory when they were finishing the first 30’.
Had some cool design ideas but I thought gave up a lot of space at the transom.
I remember it had a reputation as a hopper when it first came out and don’t think they built many.
A walk through transom would be huge.
I think the new motors have far less exposed rigging than my spider web at the platform as well!

Sweet boat, looking forward to seeing more. I love the idea of a sport boat this size, limited to twin engines, towable with a half ton truck, a well thought out transom for swimming, expanded cockpit, and maybe enough room for a small generator to run AC in the cabin for overnighting.

I should have been clearer, they have always done well in the smaller sportboat market (26-28 whatever) but the 41 OB boat seemed to take a long time to sell despite it being a great looking boat!
