Hull is complete and arrived at Supreme Marine this morning for rigging. Keep an eye on this thread to updates of the progress.

Be sure to stop by the booth (B-59) at the miami show to see her in person.

What is the lay-up on this one? Look's sweet!

Standard layup with polyester resin and kelvar reinforcements.

Full Carbon/Epoxy layup post cured available.

Everyone who plans on attending the Miami Show, stop in booth B-59 inside the convension cener to see 39001 in person Gio, Scott and crew will be there to answer any questions and have some cool stuff (Hats, Decals) to hand out.

Any more updated pics??

Photos to come. Painter Bottom last night. Should be back at Supreme Marine for rigging by weekend.

Here is a sneak peak at GTMM 39001. Paint is almost complete. Things are coming together quickly. See you at Miami Show

Clear is on. She looks awesome. Rigging has begun with all hand on deck. The guys at Supreme Marine have their hands full to get her done for Miami. Gonna be down to the wire. More to come.

She made it to the show. Awesome job.

Stop by the booth at for a closer look.:eekdrop:

heres one more guys..you did a great job..Jeff

All I can say is the pics do the boat no justice. I love the lines of this boat. Not liking the GTMM logo on the side though. I'm sure I could get used to it.

Can't wait to hear the water test numbers.

any updates?

Thanks!

Boat is back at Supreme marine for rigging of engines (Staggard 700sci). Should be ready to first sea trial in a few weeks.

why polyester on a boat of this caliber and not vinyl-ester ?

thank's
mike

Mistake on my part. It is vinyl-ester. Sorry for the confusion.

nice :)

Finished? How's it run with 700's?

The engine compartment was not complete at the Miami Show. Had to go out and get painted which took forever as she had to wait her turn.

Engines are in, tailpipes need a couple tweakes to get them right.

Sea trial will begin very soon.

Will keep everyone posted.

Can't wait to hear how she runs. The boat looked great in Miami!!!

Everyone is antzy to see her in the water. Alway seems like the final touches really take all the time. Gio and Scott are putting their heart and soul into this project. Everything needs to be perfect and 100% ready to go before she hits the water.

Does GTMM use balsa or foam coring for the bottom?

Quick update on GTMM 39001. She is in final stages of rigging. Engines are going back in for final time this week. Decided to pull them back out and anodize all the hardware instead of powdercoat. Troy is working hard to get her done. making templates for each installation. This will make future rigggin time much less than #1. She is a couple weeks from her first sea trial. Gio and Scott are chomping at the bit to see how she run.

The is much interest from all over the world so time to put best foot forward on performance and fit and finish. She is truly a work of art.

It's alive. Fired both engines late yesterday. Will try to post a video tomorrow.

^^^Upside down video of the transom nice. :rolleyes:

Damn FLIP. Won't let me flip the video over. Boat is at the iterior shop getting a few items finished up. Once Sandy make her way thru a sea trial will be on the books.

Very impressive, very classy!

My only fear is the color being to HOT even though
its always been my fav...color

Jon

Customer requested color. I love it too, but may be alittle warn. The light tan interior should be pretty cool though.

First water test late yesterday. Will have results soon.

Well first Sea Trial was a success. She planed out in about 3 seconds with a very high "X". Accelerated to 90mph like a freight train.
Put some time on the power at a nice cruise then back for post shake down inspection. No leaks all systems go. Gonna try some differant props and drive height to get handling and speed where it needs to be. Should have some more info this week.

Great! Keep us posted

GTMM Rolls out
 

She ran great we ordered larger props today, hit the rev limiter hard and went into guardian mode. Will drop the drives another 1/2" and with the new props she will be a rocket.

nice, where are you testing!

Lauderdale.... Troy and the guys from Supreme marine have been doing the initial testing.

She easily hit 100mph on Wednesday afternoon test and all over the rev limiters. Ordered new Herrings. Should see 110mph when all said and done.

nice, right down the road from me, Happy Belated Birthday by the way!

Thanks....ordered props from Herring last week. They are buried right now. Should be here in a week for more testing.

no updates for two weeks?

Props should be here this week. Herring is running behind as Europe is buying up anything they can make. I'll keep everyone posted.

whats going on in Europe that they have sudden need for props?

Wish I Knew. I'd bet theyare getting ready for 2013 UIM and P-1 race season. many of those teams can afford 5-10 sets for the season. Big UIM guys will run a set once or twice then scrap.
