Would Like Your Opinion on New O/B Model !

Kip, my enforcer rides really nice with the 300X. no chine walk, porpoising, feels perfectly balanced. handles 2 to 3 footers at 70...i think this new hull is giong to be a real winner...AL...
 
Viper thanks for the info....it will be nice to compare the new with the old ! ....also wanted to tell everybody i sent Chris a couple pictures of the deck plug for him to post when he gets a chance! Still not finished butt you can get a good idea !

I know you can't see much in these pic's ...but i thought you guys mite want to see a plug in this stage of completion.It has some real neat style line's , etc you just can't see in the putty stage it's in.Plus the difference in color make the deck look shallower than it really is.

boy thats nice, right up my ally. but whats the weight of the hull. 300x has to be standard on that hull. i'm just sad i don't have 40k+ to get one of the first.
 
Sweet style... Are there any plans for an I/O version of that boat
I realy like the down curved deck.. The deep V hull looks like a great rough water boat
The hull mold looks like the V goes all the way back, what about a pad for high speed running
 
Make it big enough so it can fit the #6 drive and big HP motors. Either taht or 1 or 2 300X's.

So may questions ...so little time. Guess it's my fault for posting it. We will be making a open bow down the road......We will be selling it with single only. But you crazy guys out there ( you know who you are ) will do what you want we can't stop ya! 22 degree deadrise semi pad ...we will have 2 different cabin's plane and fast ...and more convenient, porta pot, etc and a little slower ! Some questions are answered further back in the tread too! ...Oh and we are kicking around the idea of a I/O version of this boat down the road

Hmmmmm.....I/O version. Now we're talking, bare hull available with closed transom? All ready for Big A## bracket and Bigger A## motas

Honestly, classics Ckmate lines, not thrill about windshield, the 24 looks like a over grow 22.9 maxxium . The gunnels don’t look high enough to support bolster seat arrangement (correct me if I’m wrong) I was hoping for update look. A solid back transom would be nice. Your current design seems a little dated. Over all not a bad design, I currently own 22.9 O/B this what I’m basing my judgment on.
 
The boat most likely won't have bolster's .....it will have a new high back flip up bucket seat. And hea everybody's entitled to an opinion......I'm just letting you guys see the development of this new boat!

Maybe there could be an option for a short windshield or wrap around opeque windscreen if Ckmate229 and others don't like the tall windshield.

One thing about the tall windshield, you would'nt need goggles to go fast, another thing is that a top could used like was offered on the older styles

What a thought, a convertable top that folded down and stored behind the back seat for those sudden and quick passing thunder storms
