Love the 28 but a 34 with the new 565's and ITS would be pretty bad ass!

Oooohhhh now that would be sweet! I only mentioned the 565 build to be budget concious. Short stagger 34 with Sterling 850's and #6 if I had lottery money... :whistle:

Keep it simple for a spec boat. Great to see you keeping things going! |

It's time for some new Saber action. Saber Marine has got things lined up to start a new boat soon. If anyone is interested or knows of some interest point them our direction. If no-one jumps on board right away then we are going to build a spec boat, probably a 28 Offshore twin. What does the Saber Nation think the perfect spec boat would be?
We have been working to update a few things such as interior and graphics to go with the proven Saber hulls. We will also take any current Saber owners boat on trade for someone looking to upgrade. Call or e-mail for more details. "[email protected] " or (616) 837-6666. More details to follow. thanks, Doug Geelhoed Great News ! Idea's ???? Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm Always thought an all business 28' like Wicked Won would be the ticket. But take it a step furthur, since power Package's are so much more reliable these days... Whats your thought's on a Single Engine #6 boat like Check300's you did the work on? Power doesn't need to be 1,500hp,..but it could be. But I also think anything from 700 to 1,200 with a #6 would be the bullet proof set up. Still balance well in the CG's and still balance well in the pocket book when compared to twin everything??

Those are all great dream builds....
But for a spec. build I'd stick with the twin small blocks and bravo drives... It will be pretty good on fuel and should post some good performance numbers when dialed in. The other idea for a spec. build would of course be a single 496 with a bravo... But the only thing with a single this size is that you probably aren't going to raise any eyebrows with its performance. You want to plant the seed in their mind and then let the custom builds come to you. |

You want to plant the seed in their mind and then let the custom builds come to you. In Regards to performance the 30' Check I'm discussing with a single #6 runs 114 to 117 with single 1,500 turbo. I think 700 to 1200 hp still extremly respectable and eyebrow raising. 1 less drive in the water, less weight to carry and fuel And this 1,500 turbo is great on fuel, it's never in the boost for your normal driving. If you hit the sticks,...it drinks accordingly at that point. Jon |
Awesome news Doug!! Can't wait to see the next build whatever it is. Jason
