Nice pics

We are finishing a triple 48 atm with 540/650hp motors and IMCO advantage drives, first round tests show about 105 with 33 pitch on it, and were trying the 34's.

Working on a new center console sportfish as well, 25' long totally new bottom design, center console will have a sit down head inside it. Fininshing the deck plug as we speak, and expect the first one to go to Florida this winter for testing / tweaking. Built in boxes on the back for outboards, this should be a super fast and stable fishing boat. We also have plans on making a sport deck with a new modular interior for it, spring 03'.

Keep the posts coming guys, love to see pictures of anything weve built, take care and talk to you soon

I apoligize to all of you for not posting pics. Just finishing up the paint. Powder coating is all done and engines are finally finished as well. Arnesons are being painted and we will start to screw it back together in December. Did a total strip down on this beauty. Estimate 130-135mph. 580CI dry sumps, 1050 hp

Ill ask him tommorow bill about the stickers, i think we just got some in, and are looking at redesigning our logo

expresscat, 1050 HP sounds like fun, (too bad they werent going into a new 38' but.....) love to see some pics of it.

Anyone see the info on that miami to ny race? 10million bucks... sounds a lil far fetched to me, I hear 25-50k$ for entry fee hmmmm each of the 6 days runs is said to pay out $550k for the winner, with the longest run being 280miles. I guess they start 6 boats every 3 min and then your timed from there. Hmmmm a 49 cat with 4 diesels ought to do the trick nicely, have to run that by pops

We also have a 39' Express. The boat is called NAS-T and it is a 91. We have also been redoing it for the last year. Everything came out and we have the paint done and the rigging is taking place right now. What kind of power are you guys running and what speeds are you seeing. I believe that most of the Express cats have Arneson drives but if you have different drives what are they. I would love to see all of your pictures of your boats and I will try to get some pictures of our boat as well.
