Lots of cool shit going on. This one is simple.
19 Gullwing pre rig deal affordable to the masses. My goal is to get kids from Oklahoma to pull an LS out and put it into a jet boat and come roost with us.
This is hull 1
Bare hulls are $10K one color / $12K with gel design
We will have a pre rig kit shortly that takes its closer to water ready. You provide power, fuel tanks and trailer.

Thanks mike! You know what I mean. We are so havasu centric I want to push California custom to the mid west and east coast. Jet boats are simple and fun!

I sure do! I am glad you are making boats affordable so everyone can go out and make memories in bad ass boats.

wow bad ass! I'm assuming you won't be selling with power because on emissions? Will you be setting them up with everything except motor or just doing bare hulls only?

Totally bad ass. This is a great idea. My dad has been pushing the idea of a “kit” boat for some time with the argument that it gets people in custom boats at a reasonable price. Let’s the younger generation get started, and those with money the option to build it with an open check book. Bad ass!

Will the intake be set, or is that on the rigger? I’m interested, how do I contact you?

Look guys the EPA and CARB are going to make boats very expensive for time to come.
We used to only sell bare hulls but over the last year B1 Racing screwed all 3 of my customers for a lot of money and........they still have 3 bare hulls

So we decided after all this bullshit, and my love for jetboats that im going to make myself one and start the KIT.
I have a dominator pump and 520 bbc / nitrous deal for it. I sold my eddie manifolds and ordered some Bassett twisties

The KIT Deal is going to be:
Rub Rail
Dash Trim
Steering
3 gauges (Tach/Oil/Water) - 1 bilge - key switch
2 bucket seats - 1 full beam back bench
Berk style Intake set
1 bilge dump
1 water dump engine

You provide: ENGINE - PUMP - TRAILER - FUEL TANK
We can supply the customer a complete pump installed with bbc rail kit
Trailer i have supplies
Engines i have trusted builders


The key is the future generations and keeping boats simple. From an outsiders prospective the M37 DCB is super cool. But i still clip coupons.
I plan on offering our 177 SURF SKIFF KIT for the fishy dudes and later im hoping for a 20' SKIER Outboard like the gullwing.

I was going to jump into the market for a gullwing this summer but with COVID shutting down the lower river I tabled that idea and remodeled my house instead. Looks like I know the route I will be going when I replenish the fun fund.

I have restored a 70's jet and while it was easy, I really wished I could start fresh. You've got the perfect platform, I hope you have a lot of success with this.

Im so glad somebody is trying to keep the little guys alive and around. The kit is such a good idea and i think would really appeal to alot of people. Great looking hulls.....hopefully in the future I can get one

This is a winning market strategy. Lots want a cool boat, but have been priced out. You don’t need huge HP to have fun/ski/swim, and you can always go big if you can pull it off later. I’m thinking $25 - $30 all in for a NEW proven Hot Boat! Get ready to make a ton of these

It’s close to the Rouse 19 winger.
Mold is new straight and runs hard

We have made about 10 hulls from this tool. The keel was tuned by Bennet before mold made.

My goal is to see kids stoked on a new hull and they pull out a junkyard LS and go have some fun. 600hp and the winger is ripping

Stock intake
Bc impeller
Refresh on old Berkeley
Our seat kits are light and tight

Bring back the cool shit

Kind of the way I look at it, if somebody wanted one bad enough they could buy one used and splash a new mold.
Yes I said the “S” word. 😂

splashing a new mold is $$$$.......need more than one build to justify..............more like 10+, if not more.......destroying molds is stupid, unless they are pigs

even if you only get a grand for it, who wouldn't like an extra wad of fun tickets, think of the night you could have...................hookers, midgets, and fire trucks!

Damn. Didn’t think B1 Racing would do that. But there are always 3 sides to every story. His story. Their story. And the truth...

I have been reading this all over the internet. Several of my friends got burned in different ways before the Covid deal. It sucks because they use to do great work.

I better get drinking...

We have a white one coming out the mold getting a blown injected deal jet

Next hull going in is actually getting a 250 pro xs v8 four stroke outboard

Have many tire kickers after that


This one is for me. My kids are little and need to know what Bassett’s are

You still working over at B1 part-time?

Hi Jerry, No I left at the beginning of the year. It got too hard to find time to work there with my real job and moving from Yorba Linda to CH made it harder to get down there. Chris was the perfect boss; I worked whenever I wanted and learned a lot. It was a really cool opportunity/gig. Kinda bummed to hear of all the changes after I left.
