M28 Twin 400R

[Tony DCB Boats]

New build starting today for our Customer in Maine.

 

[CLdrinker]

Damn!!! That is going to be bad ass.

 

[AZMIDLYF]

Can never get enough of following these build threads.

 

[TCHB]

How much lighter is this small M going to weight than a M33?

 

[lenmann]

Damn, those colors are amazing. Cant wait to watch this build!

 

[Tony DCB Boats]

How much lighter is this small M going to weight than a M33?

Actually, They are similar in weight. This is due to the fact of what lamination schedule we go with.
The 28 has a different schedule than the M-33.
The M-28 is usually 5K and the 33 usually is about 5500K.
Thanks

Solely based upon the rendering i believe this is the most beautiful specimen of marine vessel ever to be built!

 

[Boat211]

I am liking this one a lot!

 

[BajaMike]

Wow!

 

[Tony DCB Boats]

Bottom Sprayed, Skinning today.

 

[Dan Lorenze]

This one is gonna be incredible..

 

[AZMIDLYF]

Wow, this thing is going to pop in the sunlight. Not knowing much about the infusion process, are those hoses reusable again?

Hoses are trash after infusion.

 

[AZMIDLYF]

Ok, guessed once the catalyst was through them, no way to clean them out. Seems like there is a lot of disposable product with the infusion.

So when do we get the fresh porn? I’m drooling patiently here.

Yes there is a lot of disposable product, although when a boat is not infused... This resin stays in the hulls of the other manufacturers...

There’s disposable product either way, but this way is cleaner.
Cleaner air, cleaner workers, cleaner shop, cleaner finished product.
Plus, in theory, it’s stronger and lighter.
Other than the learning curve to master the process there really aren’t any down sides.

Thanks for posting all these images.
The process is often talked about but seeing pictures drives it home for some folks.

Thanks Larry.... As you know it is very labor intensive and this is what makes our boats cost more. Our boats are first class and the lamination process takes about 6+ weeks depending on the model before they are pulled out of the mold.

Pins are done, Gelcoat today.

Foam coring and Carbon schedules, Infusion.

 

[Tony DCB Boats]

After sitting in the mold for over 4 weeks, we popped it Yesterday. As you can see we put the gas tanks, floors and bulkheads while its in the mold. This insures the integrity of true and straight hull.

 

[rlemn8r]

Those colors look awesome. Beautiful...

 

[Boat211]

Homerun Tony!!!! Congrats to the lucky new owner.

 

[CLA]

Wow, great job. Colors are perfect.

 

[HydroSkreamin]

Those colors look really sharp together. Can’t wait to see this one with interior in it.

Nice work, guys.

 

[Tony DCB Boats]

Just an update on this build. The boat will be shipping to Maine. Full carbon and foam core. Rough cap complete now and the bottom has been blueprinted. Now heading to Tito for finish capping and full sand and buff.
Stay tuned

 

[AZMIDLYF]

Talk about a Unicorn up in Maine. A great example to show them for sure.

 

[02HoWaRd26]

Boat is out of color sanding and in interior for pattering

 

[rivrrts429]

Wow! The blues in the gel and even the seadek material pop. Its going to be a showstopper in the sunlight.

 

[BlowMe]

Absolutely stunning!!! Best color combos I have ever seen. Incredible.....

For something a little different, it does flow nicely... Thanks and the new owner has to agree and is very excited.

 

[Tommy Gun Images]

I don't know how I missed this build till now, but wow. This thing is amazing!

 

[Tony DCB Boats]

Well underway with Rigging.

 

[AZMIDLYF]

What is the set back on those STRs?

 

[Tony DCB Boats]

What is the set back on those STRs?

We run 7.5" on our M-28R.

 

[Tony DCB Boats]

Just about a wrap.

Was this something you guys had already drawn up awaiting the right buyer or was this the buyers dream? I thought as well said it from the beginning that this was the sexiest boat ever and each step forward just proves further. Cannot wait to see the seats assuming they will be the dove gray with blue, but will you guys be including a little orange?

This was a customers build, very rarely do we ever build a stock boat.

Beyond incredible

 

[Boat211]

Over the top bitchen Tony!!

 

[mbrown2]

I have to say I really don't get a hard on for these large cats any longer.....but DCB's intro of the M28 and these color combo in general make me want to write checks that would piss off my wife. That color combo is just incredible...I have always loved a tequila sunrise orange fade as it was on my first 20' boat....You guys have done an amazing job on this one!

Thank you very much!! We try to make every build that much better. We put the same emphasis in our M-28 all the way to the M-44.

 

[DaveC]

Do it!!! You know you want to....

That way I can admire yours. And then I won't do it and piss off my wife.

The under deck area is giving me an awesome 2001 (the movie) vibe.
