There were three. Mojo, Pair-A-Dice, and Bud Select. I'm not familiar with any retractable boat but there was a removeable top that fit on the Mojo.

MTI has never built a retractable top, only the removable one for Mojo. There were actually several more MTI's there during filming that didn't make the cut, even it the Directors cut version. Speed Racer was there as well as GC motor sports which may have been it there just sitting at the docks but I'm not sure about that.

Yea, thats what i meant, guess i dident put it in the right wording. Took well over a month to do and dident even get a good look at it. The place i work at did most of the modifying of the boat itself. Like cutouts for the cameras, The top for one on the Mojo Boats, And made the rear extensions to make the boats look about 2 ft longer. Shame to see so much work go into those boats when only one out of the 3 get seen up close. The one that does is the Movie boat with the scenes from the movie painted onto the side. Oh well, thats hollywood for you.

What about them repainting the boats after they got ot Miami. I loved the white before how it would change colors and pic up any color that was around it and then they paint them flat white. :( :(
