1200hp Turbine?!? That should rock! why not 2?

I'm going to give John a call and question him some more. I hope he doesn't think I'm wasting his time by asking all the questions and such. I think for the wife to give the greenlight on one, she would just need a quck run in one. Is JC typically ok with a saturday phone call? I know he forwards the # to his mobile, but I don't want to interrupt a saturday.

Thanks Rick!

Just Call Him...
Not Too Early Though...
He is typically grumpy anyway...
Although, I bugged him today with a question about my old 97 and he was quite friendly.
Business is good...

Called JC today and had a good conversation with him. He really stresses the Mercruiser package mostly for the warranty. I think he's probably right. He said his boat would not be ready by the end of the month, so we will probably have to make a special trip out there to look at it.

I think I have some good info now, and I think the boat is in my price range. All I have to do now is make sure it fits us as far as running goes and my decision will be made.

Thanks for your help everyone. Maybe in the next few months Rick will be posting pics of my hull being laid up!!

One thing I did forget to ask JC was how much extra a "SUPERBOAT" hull side graphic would be. Or do you guys think it would be better to have something done locally after delivery?

He uses a local guy Sticker point. I believe he used him for the Superboat logo the same as in my avatar for my boat. Anything other than that I'm sure JC would let you deal with the guy direct to get just what you wanted. Krakmeup did a wonderful job locally down in Texas with "Once Bitten". As far as doing it in the gelcoat, I wouldn't recommend it

I'm talking about the BIG "SUPERBOAT" down the side like so many seem to have. I think it is a great looking graphinc. Maybe with the US Flag draped through the letters? The flag is done to death these days, but it really says something. It never goes out of style.

I do like how the logo in your avatar is typically at the back on each side. it looks good as well.

I don't think I want anything in the gel voat for sure. How are you liking the black hull OH-ZONE? Any fear about water spots?
