Thanks for posting some pictures of the pontoon and 20'. I can't really tell anything about the pontoon. Do you have any other pictures? Do you have any pictures of the bottom of the 20'? Is it a true tunnel or modvp? you can email me more info and pictures to MirageBts@aol.com.

Thanks,

Brad

It would be considered a Mod VP, it does have a center pod. The pod is 1" below the out side sponsons, making it a leagal boat to run in the APBA.

This is showing the plug being lifted out, you should be able to see the center pod and the top of the tunnels with the outside sponsons. It needed a little help with the water hose to float it a bit.

[armyranger1994]

how much are you asking for the mold? armyrangerm203gunner@yahoo.com

[Cobra1]

$7,500.00 and you get the original plug to go with it. This means you own the rights to the tooling. The hull is all glass, so you could put a new deck on it and paint the hull and have a boat to show. Most of the deck is glass other than the front end, that was all done with wood, glass and bondo. You could just build a new glass front and glass it to the deck, quicker than building a new deck.

[Cobra1]

You can also make a deck boat out of the hull. Just put bulk heads from side to side and put a floor on it, with hatch's for storage in the center pod and the out side sponsons.

No, there not going anywhere. This is to keep the devil happy. Devil being, resin hating wife. I can race this open bow in the Comp Jet class and in the Parker 300. Wouldn't that look odd, a seven passanger family cruiser running in a 300 mile enduro.

[Vicious Racing]

I keep hopeing to get a email with a pic of a deck plug that has simularites to a 25' Talon !

If you have never built a boat, this is not one to cut your teeth on. Start with something small. This boat is 3 times harder to lay up than a V hull, and uses 1 1/2 times the material, for a boat the same length.

[Cowboy_Mike]

I believe it. Other hulls aren't as unique, and versatile. This is an atractive boat.

It is. An old friend of mine Designed it. The deck is easy but the hull, that's a beast vs. a V hull.

[Cowboy_Mike]

I am interested still. I am a hands on learner.

[Cowboy_Mike]

I guess I should find out what it takes for a boat like this before i bite off more than I can chew. LOL!!! It takes 1.5 times material, time? Working 4-6 hours a day as a beginner, mithg take a while?

[Cobra1]

If your fast, you can skin it in 6 hours, just the hull. That would be hand laying, chopper gun, much less. Quality with a chopper, much less. The deck is a piece of cake.

one roll of mat, one roll of 1708, one drum of resin, one gallon of MEKP, 10 gallons of gel, for a single color. One box of balsa. That will build you a bare hull, with a solid color. If you want more colors the price goes up. Yellow is about $100.00 per gallon, others are a little less, and then there is custom blending your own colors.

what to know more email speedracer525i@yahoo.com

Doesn't sound too bad!

Your not the only one that would like these. A builder in Havasu wants them as well.

After further review of the Paker 300 rules, this boat can also be raced.

[Vicious Racing]

Scott, Did you ever finish a closed deck ?

[Cobra1]

Scott, Did you ever finish a closed deck ?


No not yet. The reason for building a closed deck was to be able to race the boat. After looking at the rules for the Parker 300 and other APBA Mod VP racing, I won't need a closed bow. I can race the open bow, less all of the comforts of home. I still plan on doing it, just not at the moment.

[Vicious Racing]

Keep me in mind, how about just a hull and I will cut and wack a 17' deck.

Good Day David,

I'm going to take a wild stab in the dark, I'll bet you never built a boat befor. Delivery cost, up in the air, they will fit on a car hauler trailer. Mfg and instruction manuals, there are some books for fiberglassing that you can buy, other than that it's an all hands on learning experience.

If you're into racing at all, this boat will meet the rules, APBA,IHBA and more. If you want to go out and kick your buddy's a$$ this boat will do that to. It will take $7.500.00 to buy the molds and you will have to find a way to get them from Az to your home. Good Luck.
