Alluminum and when it set's in water it rotts

I have been down this road before,the old gas would be jelly by now anyway so it is easyer to just replace the tank.

Hi Guys,

We feel its time to let the cat out of the bag.... You all know that Profile closed in 2008.

We have purchased the molds last year and have spent the last six months repairing, cleaning and lots of updating.

The company is moving to our new plant at Lake of the Ozarks next month.

Our company is Nautical Racing Group LLC (NRG Boats)

Let me know your thoughts.

SWEEEEEET! That is awesome! Did you guys get the cat molds? This is really good news and you really need to start a thread on this. There are a lot of guys out there that that will be happy to hear this, me included. Can you give us some details, power options, updates, etc.

Yes we have all the molds. so if there are any needs just let me know. I'll do what I can.

There is other BIG changes to come that will be new for performance boaters. I'll write more on this later.

We have two boats out of the molds - first out is a 30' open bow, powered with a 8.2 merc. we also have a 38' out of glass, power is to be determined later.

Call me with any questions or send me a message. Let all your friends know..

Lastly, we will be going to a limited number of Poker Runs. I am looking for suggestiions on which one to go to.

The new transom

duunoit 03-08-2011 07:58 AM

I hope I didn't cut out anything that you needed. Haven't looked at your pictures full size, did you replace the notch, too?

jwp51 03-08-2011 08:31 AM

I'm looking into going, We will be at another one on the 24th in upper N.Y.
Do think that there may be many Profile boats at your run?

out of 100 boats there would maybe be 5-10 profile's. the last few years there have been a couple of new prototype boats showing up to test and tune. prettycool ! if you decide to show and need help with any logistics just let me know. the person who heads it up is a friend of mine.

Sorry for the extended reply,

Yes we have our web site up and running (www.nauticalracinggroup.com) I still have to get the information on our 38 & 40' boats. We also have our 30' open bow completed. It will be at the St. Louis boat show for all that are interested to check it out.
