I"ve been aboard two different Axiom 42's while on the trailers. One was the flat deck like the one on that sight, the other was a tall deck version (same hull) with a huge cabin.

The flat deck (race version I think they call it) had tripple big block engines (no sure of hp) and the tall deck had tripple diesels. In May, 1998 we had a freak tornado/wind storm in Grand Haven. The tall deck, which had an awsome paint job, was left tied to the wall in the Grand River in Grand Haven while the owners walked into town for dinner etc.... the storm came up REALLY fast and this boat banged against the steel curagated wall, fenders rendered useless by the over 4' swell coming in from Lake Michigan. It made the port side of the boat, from stem to stern, look like someone had taken a cheese grater to it. But, all the damage was above the waterline, so my friend and some guy who knew the owner (I recongized him) started the boat (push button start, no keys) and idled it to the other side of the river and beached it so it would suffer no more damage. I picked them up on the other side and brought them back to town. It was an ugly sight!!!

I've never seen either of these boats on plane though..... always seem to be tied up or on the trailer.

'Foul

boats now built in ohio owned by same guy that has challanger boats

original builder was Lance not lace

Mark, do you remember those two boats? They spent a winter in storage in one of the bays at Motion Marine in Holland..... Dave Dickman is a friend of mine and that's where I got to look at the boats. They were brand new at the time, untitled. Tall Deck was white hull with blue and yellow graphics. I still see the flat deck around once in a while.

flat deck is the one with the above link

I used to stop and see lance when he was building em

boats were ahead of there time but over priced back then

I rember the boats all to well mike

That pic is on a lift at Holiday Inn. That boat was at CK for a long time. Was kinda cool. NK

The hull is a pop of a Midnight Express 37

I thought that boat looked familiar. Didn't recognize the marina though.... guess I should have looked closer.

I wonder what ever happened to the tall deck one??

back around 94 or 95 there was one at the tan tar a inwater boat show with triple 465s it was a huge boat for its time it was kind off a slug but went threw the rough stuff. loto has a tall deck that runs around with captain morgan flags i believe.
later

This one was at The Wharf Marina in Grand Haven, Mi. today.
