2112,

This boat was rigged by Tres Martin and Staff at Martin Offshore in Ft Lauderdale. If Dhlaw does not have all the answers you need Tres will.

Can't see the picture that well. Are you saying that the people in the 42 are wearing belts? If so, is this a bad thing in an open style cockpit? Tiger Performance has velcro belts in their catalog. I was considering using these to help hold down my girlfriend of all 110lbs. in the seat of my cat. Recommendations?

Are these the automotive crate 525's? Would you consider an outright sale? Without pinning you down, give me a number? Sorry, but do not have anything that I think you would consider for trade. I would sell it myself and go from there.

Click on the image and you'll see the belts on rear seats. Its kind of like seat belts on a motorcylce (well not that bad). bad enough being dis-orientated from being thrown from a boat at speed - worse under water / upside down and strapped in. Pretty sure an insurance company would see the same way.

now as far as recomendations for the girlfriend - first I'll need some pics before what would be best for her. Possibly a slower/safer deep V... like a Formula 311?

Thanks CMG, Your right about wearing a bucket type belt in an open cockpit. As for the girlfriend, she already knows what's best for her--------------me.

brett, put a price out here..... that would be an awesome poker run boat..

No offense Sean H but this boat needs to be on a Race Course and not a Poker Run course. I am betting with all the new SBI/APBA news that he should start to get some calls or inquires.


Dhlaw,

Do you know what the reasoning was behind of the switch back to the Vortecs from the Merc 525's?? I know they were in there when Tres did the complete rerigging of the boat.

Thank you. I honestly think that I am very luck to have been so fortunate. Believe me, I appreciated every minute in them and I appreciate the current boat every time that I run it or even work on it.

i agree, but i don't have the time or skill to race..... i don't see anybody stepping up yet and my money spends the same as a racer's does...

Whats up Will????? Enjoying the Snow???? Maybe a reminder from this picture will warm you up. Keep in touch and let me know about the AC Show.
