Or better, if you know of someone whose got one they're willing to sell to me let me know. Thanks.
The molds are being foreclosed on for storage costs in lake Havasu city.All three cat molds and the vee mold.

A few years ago I was making a deal to build a new Platinum with Andres, the owner. It was going to be the 1st open cockpit poker run boat. We worked out the pricing but he didn't want a deposit. He was having thee molds brought "somewhere" to manufacture the boats. He said to give him 2 weeks. I tried to contact him but never heard from him again. I was really disappointed.
Glad they are finally building boats. They are a beautiful design.

Mike, thanks, it's became interesting real quick,
I got two leads as result of my inquiry into buying Raptor/platinum which probably are about the same (Three) abandoned hulls for sale.
A) in a storage facility, up for auction for non payment. Don't know which storage. I got the town not the place.
B) the other is with the busy builder. Maybe you know? Is the builder/owner on OSO?
