Okie- I look foward to seeing you get it worked out.
At least you have a good hull and know what needs to be done.
I have been in a few that were lost causes. Example, the 34 DCB that porpoised so bad that it unloaded the drives. You could drive through the porpoise in the right conditions. This thing porpoised so bad trying to get over 100 that it would unload and eventually break the drives!!!
Then there this is U l t r a, The only Ultra I have been in would try to make a turn when you got out of the throttle.
It is a shame what all is out there that unknowing buyers will wind up with.
Get that Motion worked out and take me for a ride!

Haha, the 34 that kept breaking the tunnel tab was the replacement that had 6's.

Motion is headed to Missouri on Tuesday. Hopefully motor move wont take too long. Even though it is hopping, I can say it accelerates like a raped ape!

He should have learned the first time! I went to DCB and talked to Dave himself. He was very guarded discussing the 34. I looked at 1 with 1000's, and #6's. Could that have been the second boat? BTW, the 32's he had in the shop were knocked out! The 34 was a bad design but he does know how to build a boat. I toured Eliminator the next day and have to say there fit and finish, although very good, was not as good as DCB.

I didnt want to bring up Eliminator in my post but since you did...
I was given a 30 Eliminator with unlimited fuel and the keys to break in a new set of motors. Lets just say I spend 30 minutes in it and told the customer he could break it in!
