I know a lot of you guys don't stray out of the lounge much.. but there is some incredibly sick builds going on in RDP right now!

30' Speedster that has been WIDENED 9 INCHES! It will be a new model and will have a 116 inch beam! This boat will have a pair of Teague 825's in it and I can't hardly wait to see how it runs!

Roy (GetRealPerformance) is building several boats at once! A 21 Schiada that will be getting a 300R.. And he is also building this little 28' Skater that has been Widened 19 inches and will have a 64 inch tunnel! This boat is 10' Wide and will be on a Tilt Trailer powered originally by 300R's, but switching to the new larger powered Outboards after the Miami Boatshow!

Or a super cut down 36 with outboard power (really curious to see how this turns out?)

The new Nordic Cat is a great build too, really excited to see how that comes together! I'm really liking the cut down 36 Eliminator with outboards as well!

The 34’ Nordic I am anxious to see what power they put in it and how it runs!! They built the last one and sold it out the Back door before I even got to go on it! Lol.

Is this a matt finish or possibly just not color sanded yet?

It looks like a flat style finish...

The first one with 600’s was reported to be a 100mph ride. Be fun to stuff the Merc 860’s or TCM 825’s in this one.

DCB has some pretty nice stuff coming down the pipeline as well. Magoo's new ride is almost done, and looks amazing.

The Predator is cool.

I love that Eliminator is building a 21. It's sad that companies aren't churning out small boats.

I still want to hear how this one ran.

Also interested to see the Barron numbers. Figured they’d do some fine tuning and post em up.

So I'm guessing that 30 speedster at 116" wide will require a tilt trailer too.
.
These are all bitchen boats but certainly not geared towards the average Joe consumer.

Most likely not. The DCB M31/M33/M35 are all 115" and don't necessarily need a tilt trailer so I doubt 1" more will make it need one.

Ain't 102 max for highways? I know people who got tickets for leaving their ladders attached to side of their 102" toy trailers.

I think the 26 Speedster :) is going to be a home run. Set it up with a pair of 300R’s or I bet a single 400R would replicate what a 525 25 would do back in the day before today’s lighter lay up options. Some very nice stuff in Eliminator’s future no doubt.

You, are going to be happy. :)
Oohh..... I like to hear that! DCB was saying they were moving the bulkhead way back for their first "R" model and it only ended up being just enough to get some legroom. Not much of a significant change in my opinion.

I'm curious about the Barron Boat, does anyone know what motor it's running ?

I love the little 21 eliminator as well. I miss the smaller boats as well.

Such a sexy hull Love the windshield. They claim some pretty high numbers with low power.
Does anyone know when the 25 speedster will be available? Pictures?
oh man, I HAVE to see this one. We priced out a 27 speedster.... and they were being EXTREMELY aggressive (with pricing) but just a tad out of reach. Id REALLY like to see a 25!

The 30 wide body Speedster is for Bob Hadd out of the Sacramento area. He has a place in Havasu, so you'll certainly see it around. We have been talking about it for quite some time. With the TCM power and SCX drives it should be a drama free and fun ride!

Roy got a good deal on the tilt trailer otherwise it would be sitting flat. You can tow any boat flat as long as you buy the permits and know what you are doing.

How does one widen a mold already cast?


Does that mean someone can make steps on a flat bottom vee hull after the fact?
