100K to me is well above entry level.

If the proposed $40,000 est spec boat is possible. What a class it could become.

I would guess like Joker said: Single out Board - S.O.B. ~But we cannot even agree on how much the other person can build a boat for; so dont hold your breath on much happening.

Does anyone have any connections in the outboard arena? If anyone has any #'s or names I would be willing to propose some ideas to them. If someone else is already working on this please let me know.

It looks like the Guys (and gals) over in Europe need a lid on their boats!!!!! The sure do get pitched quite a bit..... Maybe that is why they are all wearing dry suits as race uniforms.

Looks like fun with a little better handleing design (someone mentioned a 7ft beam instead of 6ft)

I deal with China on a daily basics, unfortunately allot is manufactured over there and you may be shocked on who makes "fishing hulls" over there.

But 5K.. don’t thinks so..
