The whole thing is home made - the only manufactured bit is the large
scanoe which was glassed - everything else was made.

I would have included the picture of the electronics, but take my word
for it - there is some rather sohpisticated electronics on that thing.

According to the Service Manager, he does use the hell out of it.

I would NEVER have guessed a watercraft as sleek as that would be the result
of a do it yerselfer!

This one case where the pictures do it a lot of good. :)

But it floats - that's the important thing.

There is another guy who has a boat similar to this who uses it in
Long Island Sound - the outriggers are a bit wider and bigger than
this one. I have heard, second hand, that he's even been sited out at
the Race with the thing. I don't go there in my Ranger. :)

If he was smart he would go into production on those....odds are he would
have that market segment all to himself.

Undoubtly all to himself.

PLEASE post a pic of the electronic suite...I'll bet it rivals the new
carrier Ronald Reagan!!!

Well, I wish I could, but there is a lot of stuff that identifies the
owner in/on/around the console and I don't want to do that. Let's
just say that behind that glass windshield is an all color suite,
mapping gps, fish finder, flasher, radio, vhf....really nifty looking.

All the best,

Tom
