Sanford, Florida, August 1, 2007, Second to launch, in the line of Initial Marine Corporation's VELOCITY Sport Utility Boats (S.U.B.), is the new "Crossover" Series. Featuring Mercury as its chosen Performance Brand of Outboard engines, this "Ultimate Crossover" boat can be a fishing boat, a sport boat, a ski boat, a dive boat, a poker run boat or even a race boat.

...The new Mercury powered VELOCITY S.U.B. Crossover does everything that a sport boat and a center console does but more. With the blending of the two designs, the new VELOCITY Crossover Sport Utility Boats are the best of both worlds. By employing the new and Patented Swim Platform Cover and Step Assembly the passenger can walk around the engines and conveniently step in and out of the water effortlessly.

...Steve Stepp, President of Initial Marine Corporation, states, "The New VELOCITY Sport Utility Boats (S.U.B.), especially the 'Crossover ' Series, is the answer to 'What do I want to do with my boat today?' and any answer is correct. He continues, 'Today I want to fish and tomorrow I want to run in the Poker Run...can I do both? Absolutely!'"

All Crossover VELOCITY's, 240, 280SC, 300, VR1, 380, and 400SC, have a fully hoseable fiberglass cockpit side panel / floor assembly. The back seat can be designed for a custom application and can be fully removable for easy fishing and/or diving applications. The forward cabin area has a comfortable head area and multi-functional cabinets for storage, which can be customized for various uses.

...The VELOCITY hull uses a proven Pad Bottom to provide the best handling, speed, and fuel efficiency in its class. The Steve Stepp created and designed VELOCITY Pad Bottom on all VELOCITY Crossovers' use the proven race and championship winning hull design that holds more World Championships than any other hull in its class. That same design has broken more APBA/UIM Speed Records than any other Performance Boat Manufacturer in that class with Mercury power.
