    Anybody here have one? I’ve looked at them at the shows and they are well made. I really was looking for a large tiller (glass) but the price tag has me re-thinking things. Looks like a 70 hp motor is pretty much it for them. Just wonder if anybody has any experience with them.

    I do recall in one of the videos on the website I think the owner or another guy said just call them, and they’ll give you some customers numbers and talk to them directly on how their boats are. Always thought that was really cool.

    Good luck wherever the search leads! Just remember I got a sweet 14′ Backtroller if you ever need to downgrade jester

    I spoke to the owner a few years ago. I was actually inquiring about a center console and he said he was willing to build one. I didn’t go with his because it was just too small for superior.

    He actually has a demo boat that he’ll let you borrow to try out on your body of water. I think that should help answer any questions you’d have about the boat.

    I spend a solid hour at a show last year taking to the owner and giving the boat as through of a once over as possible.

    They’re very very well made and he’s as nice of a guy as you could meet. I’ll be seriously considering one for my next ride. Other than that I can’t tell you much about on the water performance

    Dutchboy,
    The hull is actually rated up to 80hp, so if you wanted to have your local dealer hang a 75 Mercury/Yamaha/E-TEC/etc on it, you could.
