Just a quick article on the shop tour we took down at Concept Speed and Marine mid last week!

This is what the shop looked like when we pulled up.

The place was absolutely littered with Schiada's and bad ass boats. As we stepped inside there was a pretty good back drop for a video. A really nice V-drive Vector and a freshly gelled Twin Turbo Schiada River Tunnel.

From there I went to the back of the building and checked out their fab shop where they can fab brackets and other things needed for rigging boats and cars.

Directly across from this is a separate room that is a clean room for engine assembly.

From there we walked back out front and over to the other side of his building where the Hot Rod Shop is. They were doing a gel repair on the back of this Schiada. Filling some holes and redoing the inside and outside of the transom.

From there we met up with Al whom runs the Hot Rod side of Concept Speed and Marine, and talked to him for a minute.

I'd like to thank John and Al for opening up their shop to RDP at a moments notice and taking the time to go through everything with us! Pretty cool little tour, and I learned a lot about their capabilities and what they can do down there!
