I had the fortune of riding in it at Havasu. The boat is very finished and very cool. I rode under the canopy through the London Bridge channel ... I think we broke a few necks.

:cool: :cool: :cool:

Re: Dragon Dragon Dragon
 

CB........Ya got pics of #2????

Re: Dragon Dragon Dragon
 

Things we are working on.

Re: Dragon Dragon Dragon
 

Best I can tell from your sketch is that you are planning to put a brass dancer pole that anchors between the two tanks, comes up through the floor and telescopes (when desired) beyond the roof......correct? :D

Re: Dragon Dragon Dragon
 

Craig, I wish the best for everone but isn't that cockpit going to get warm?? She is not the prettiest boat on the water either. Why leave Cigarette when you have a good thing going? Have you seen the factory yet, if not stop buy because it is awsome. I heard you were going to farm all the work on the boat out, how do you keep quality up if the boat is never in your shop? What about a dealer networwork? Well all the best and I hope you sell out ever year.

Re: Dragon Dragon Dragon
 

Be nice now. Not the prettiest boat out there? :rolleyes: Like everything in life beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I think it is the best looking boat on the market and after looking at everything on the market (including Cigarette), I bought Dragon #3. Besides who wants to look like everyone else. Just my humble opinion. :drink:

:(

Re: Dragon Dragon Dragon
 

Hey NORDEE,
You can put one on the formula.... Since it has everything else on it :D :D :D

Re: Dragon Dragon Dragon
 

Congratulations EricT,
The Dragon is an awesome boat and Craig and Scott are great to work with.

Re: Dragon Dragon Dragon
 

It's really nice inside not warm at all. I also have a air systems for the cockpit for those who want it. At Lake Havasu we had 8 people riding and everyone was very confortable. The magazine writers who have wrote about the Dragon to date say there is a nice breeze coming through and have all been positive. It's not hot at all. The back seat and sun cushion are in the open. There's no accounting for taste, there are people that like Cigs, there are people who hate Cigs, they like Fountains, Nor Techs, Power Plays, Formulas, Skaters, MTIs, Sunsations, Panteras, Scarabs, Apaches, Sonics or any of the other good brands of performance boats. The Dragon is not for everyone. As far as quality control you need to see one. They are as perfect as they come. Lamination is specialized and is performed in the Dragon factory that only deals in exopy, only. The rigging is by Mercuy Marine's Lake X, now in a new place. You can test your own boat with Mercury personal. The inside is done by Jeffery......I need not say more. Paint, they are like a mirror because of the finish work just ask anyone who has looked at one live. You are more than welcome to visit all or any of the places with me. Come for a ride. The Dragon is another choice in a performance boating. You can love them or hate them. So far there are 4 in love 3 maybe falling in love and hopefully others looking for love. cb

Re: Dragon Dragon Dragon
 

Craig,

you're funny! And a class act.

Cig Bullet,

I've seen the Dragon in person and it is something to behold. The rigging from what I've seen is as good (or better) as any Cig/Skater/Nortech, etc.

I'm not stroking Craig at all. But you have to give the guy credit for what he and his crew have accomplished. To ask why did he leave Cigarette is a relevent question but you have to see that progression and change is good for everyone. To knock the Dragon when you haven't seen one (assuming you haven't) is foolish at best. Go ride in one and crawl through it. You're doubts will be put to ease.

Eric, hope to be out there with you when you take delivery. Did you get my message today?

Tank

Re: Dragon Dragon Dragon
 

Well put Tank! Craig is KING!!!! :p :p :p I got your message today. I am in a sales meeting in Denver right now. I will call you in about an hour.

Re: Dragon Dragon Dragon
 

I have been looking everywhere for exopy. Where in the world did you find it?

Re: Dragon Dragon Dragon
 

Wasabe, I know where to get epoxy. Craig and Scott apparently use exopy (whatever that is!)

Re: Dragon Dragon Dragon
 

Craig,

Any updates on a race-boat being built for the future. Judging from the tests and dialing in of the Dragon that Tres has been doing the numbers in the pleasure boat version are making a race version sound very promising and sounds to be a good pic for SV.

Thanks,
DPT

Re: Dragon Dragon Dragon
 

Very close maybe just a postman away. cb

Re: Dragon Dragon Dragon
 

A Viper dealer in N.H. has asked. Thanks for the comment. cb

Re: Dragon Dragon Dragon
 

Craig,

Any chances of a Birth of a Super V thread in this section for the upcoming Super V Dragon. Really helps us guys up here in the North east during the cold winter months.

Thanks,
DPT

Re: Dragon Dragon Dragon
 

Thank you. Yes I can put the super v up if you like. cb

Re: Dragon Dragon Dragon
 

Yes Craig!!!! Please do. Happy Holidays.

DPT

Re: Dragon Dragon Dragon
 

Happy Holidays to all and a very merry New Year. ok, cb

Re: Dragon Dragon Dragon
 

The vee boat is the first staggered. Yes you can do that. If you have the wheel on the other side it not an issue. I like the idea of 2 people....why or who....you and your friend...you and your girlfriend/wife....so 2 people can can have fun. If you set the trim at 1.5 you really don't have to touch it the entire day it will almost do everything there.......however it does take getting use to....my problem is sometimes I do thing i like, so your idea is excellent....cb

What's UP!!! :D :D :evilb: :evilb: :drink: :drink: :drink:
