Question Who's Boat

Mika,
Who's boat is in#9? That boat looks totally custom. Who's ever boat that is please post some info and pictures of that bad boy. I would like to find out about the trim and how it works vs. a fixed trim.

What ever happened to "Chasing the Deal"? I heard the boat was sold. I was at Skater and saw it in the parking lot. I know that was a fast boat with crash boxes.

Mark,
I'm going to take you up on that ride.
I cannot recall who's boat that is in post's 7,8,9. It was in the classifieds a few years back. Someone on here will probably remember.
I found this picture of your boat on this thread. Does it still look like this? Post some more pictures of it.

Smile Thats the boat

You are so very resourceful. Thats the boat in June and after the poker run I donated about $7000.00 to Arneson for a drive that I had to rebuild. I had it orginally rebuilt by a place in LOTO and it came apart when running hard in the poker run. The interior is whited out and now the cockpit is torn out and is mostly going to be whited out. I also has cushion made for between the engines make. I am building or ordering custom made mufflers to avoid any more noise tickets. I am running dry Stelling Big Tubes at 6000rpms. Racecrafters has the best muffler available which can run WOT(click on the website). I am still learning my computer and can not down load pictures for some reason. I could bore you with all of the other things that I am doing this year, so you will have to see it when you are on the boat.

Pics are good.

I thought that my boat was dull and boring. That gray is dull as could be and I bet its hot in the sun. I am going to have to make my trim cyclinders because no one has them anywhere. Buying the cyclinders from Arneson is over $4000.00 and I know that they could be made for much less. I hope I could find a used pair soon.
Tizbad is one of the 2 boats for sale in Ohio yours?

Angry Where's the front half

Marc,
You could of sent a picture of the boat and trailer hooked up to "my" custom Mitcher-T painted, billit (this that and the other) parts crew cab dually. I could almost vision the two hooked up and rolling down the highway taking up a lane and half of the shoulder. I think you are ready for a new truck and I will glad help you out by taking the "old" truck off of your hands. The boat looks nice but I don't know about that Manning Trailer. (Just Kidding!) Would look nice with a goose-neck.
Mark Smith
