Mercury is steping up production with an additional Die cast machine for the blocks.

Could you make a long yoke and ski off the two back eyes? Or is this a ski eyeless boat ?

Looks awesome !

With most any single outboard (or multiple on a vee as well) it will likely use a ski pylon.

Custom Canvas in Montclair, Ron was the original 210 Race Boat Owner / Builder. Instead of using the bulky Hallet Seats he made low profile bucket seats. All the Ski Race 210's had them.

Very nice....is the windsheild wrap around the final product? Looks like it stops earlier than the traditional 210...I like it stopping short.

Not finished. Would not look right if it stopped short. I'm sure they could build it that way... Maybe.

Definitely. I said 80ish based on normal boating. Fuel, people, and gear in the boat.

Should run 85 two people light fuel load.

OK, OK, OK, before I tell you guys what it did, this customer could care less what it does for a top speed. This is not a race boat, it's not a carbon and kevlar potato chip with a giant blower motor, or twin whackers, this is a full 21 foot fiberglass pleasure boat with 450 HP for enjoying the river. This customer bought this boat to water ski, and cruise the low river at a decent cruising speed, and have a mid range with a punch. The customer wants a good hole shot for water skiing, and mid range acceleration. The customer cares about what this boat is going to do when you are actually boating, full of fuel, gear, skis, coolers, and passengers, not 5 gallons of fuel and no one in the boat going down river lol. Like I stated top speed is not what the customer is looking for. So far the boat has seen 75MPH that was with a 29 FS 4 blade, with another 800 RPM to go. we are waiting for some props to come in, and have some adjustments to make and will dunk it again, but for now the customer is thrilled with how it came out, and the performance so far, and thats what counts, what the customer wants! This will be at the LA boat show, if you would like to see this masterpiece in person.

Did the hull get weighed unrigged and rigged by chance?

Boat turned out great... fun package.

Really like the new interior and extra room.

I think I would absolutely do the 400 package if building one.

Saw it at the boat show and like a lot of things about it. Lots of interior room, beautiful gel coat work. I loved the retooled dash to accommodate power steering helm and the change on the transom to make room for the jack plate. What I didn’t care for was the only gauge was a vesselview4, seamed kind of small. The other was the price quoted by one of the Nordic guys...$145k

Im sorry. That is a Great looking boat. No question it’s super nice!!! But I don’t care, IMHO it would look 100% nicer and more substantial with a nice 525 merc and bravo drive in it than that monstrosity of a white whale hanging off the back. Don’t even care if the outboard is faster, though I’m not sure it is. That motor hanging off the back destroys the classic smooth lines of the 210. One mans opinion. That said, it’s an amazing boat.
