I have seen it run and heard it up close at the docks..It's everything you think it would be. I think this is the third or fourth " Jaws " isn't it?

I think 3rd.... yea very cool boat to have local to us, you would think with the coin Dennis has it would have a boathouse to keep it clean!!

That's at least the 4th jaws. My guess would be as follows

1st: 39' Ocean Express. This one was originally white w/ blue and red accents... This goes back to the lat 80s / early 90's. I remember seeing the boat at CP boat show. This was also the boat in the Fast Boats video.
2nd: 46' Ocean Express. This one has been repainted blue & silver. I believe this one is at Wesseldyk's place

3rd: 46' Skater race boat. This boat was at the last Chicago Poker Run. I beleive its currently at Wesseldyk's

4th: 50' Quad MTI

I wouldn't be surprised if there was another OE included in there...

The 48 Ocean Express Jaws after Dave Wesseldyk did a refit.

The boat is currently for sale: http://marinetechnologyinc.com/2013/11/2009-mti-55/
The gentleman selling it is named Dennis Kaiser, I am beyond excited to see what he has up his sleeve to out do what he had. Seeing the 55' in person is truly an honor and a true achievement in marine technology ;)

I rarely see the boat ran, it cant have many hours on it..... I boat past it most weekends... always on the lift...

Yeah I live down the street from him in the nor Easter club, kinda sad because he is never out talking to neighbors or anything. Only time I see him is when taking jaws out or driving his Ferrari 458 Italia or Porshe Cayenne Turbo S to CIC. (Both beautiful cars btw ;) )
