41 Raptor
 

Can you give some more info on the boat and the record that they want to break

thanks

I saw the boat in Key West years ago. The boat has beautiful lines! I also crawled in one the year they had it at the Miami Boat Show. It had 500 efi's full stagger. The cabin was all carbon fiber. Very nice boat. Too bad they did not go into production, because it was a very nice boat.

Michael Peters designed..pretty sweet ride

Vern Gilbert owns the boat. 1(310) 995-1670.

Good luck

Gregg, I hope you don't mind I sent Vern a text message as I am trying to find a raptor for sale.
Best, Patrick

Looks like you bought it. Would like to see some updated pics

lets see some pics!!

If I recall they had 2 V hulls and were in their brochure at one time. Have no idea where and how many were built. I would think either 1 or 2 max and maybe none of the other model V hull.

Can someone post their catalog (brochure) from years ago up here ?

I called owner Vern, to buy the boat. he never responded.

Just saw an ad on FB PBSS for a new "sister" boat but it disappeared. Seemed impressive though, claims 122mph with 500EFI's

That guy is FULL OF S*&%

That boat was ahead of its time. I doubt 122 MPH with 500's but it is still bad azz looking.

This thread needs pics - here are some stock pics online.

Is this boat the same as the 41 Platinum Raptor that Cosker built?

I could be wrong, but i believe these where designed but Michael Peters & Tres Martin. It was the first in the industry to be using 5-axis CNC milled hull and deck tooling. Again 122 with 500's. NEVER.

I am pretty sure this is the one. Was there only 1 or were there 2 (or3)?

Anybody know?

If anyone is interested we have the molds for the 41 Raptor and the 40 cat they are the original platinum molds and ready to start building boats. for more info we can be reached at 772-971-8755

I rode in that boat in Key West, great riding boat!

And yes the 41 Raptor all Carbon boat is available it is hull and deck only

pics???

I will try to post some as soon as i figure out how

Anyone still interested? 1 of 2 org hull is up for sale

I don't know how to post pics or URL. Msg me I guess. Pics also in a Facebook group called "Classic offshore boat restoration"

So you own this currently or just pointing out its for sale ? The 41 is nice. If I recall I seen one in person years ago - I believe at Miami boat show ? But I do not remember it being all white. Possible I am thinking of another boat thou.

Also was nt it called Pure Platinum ?

The hull is currently for sale, I'm not the owner though, my friend is selling it. It's all white. I tried to upload a photo but this blog won't let me. Photos of it are on the facebook group called "Classic offshore boat restoration"

Great looking boats!

Did the one converted to outboards ever hit the water?

..

stumbled across this post looking up Platinum because i saw the 41 with outboards in the chesapeake bay this weekend
