The deal -
David Adams builds Liberator boats in Crowley Texas. I bought my first 21' from David in 1987.
Randy Corson buys blank hulls from David and does high end paint and rigging. The quality of Randy's work is amazing.
Randy also buys boats from Checkmate along with Talon. He is...
My dad bought a solid 1949 black 62 special from his boss in 1956. 5K miles .I was 12. That was an amazing car. Loaded does not cover it. We were transferred from Spokane to Shreveport in 1957. I have looked for one for quite a while with no luck. Looks like the price has moved right out...
Cleavers always produce the big numbers which in our end of the world is not the goal. The game is who gets there first which cannot be played with cleaver props. I will give up 5 mph on the top end for 5 lengths out of the hole anytime.

I do have original pics which I will get organized. You are on the money on the set up.
We never went for a top end number but 130 would not have been a problem. With a set of tuned 26" ETs and 900psi in the bottles, it would reach 123 at 10,500 in about as long as it takes for a good fart...
That boat was built for my buddy. Number 3 of the eight DCBs Dave has built for him. It was rigged with drag 300s, each with an alcohol injected 175hp NOS shot. We were big into NOS at the time. It was a great lake boat except for the problem that drag 300s were race motors and keeping them...
It is called Kroil (Kano) and there is nothing else like it.

It is expensive but worth every dime.

I do not seem to have a limit for something I really want.
LT
I bought a small video camera that was on thread on RDP. About $70 bucks.
It showed up today and came with no instructions and I cannot find the web site, ya I know - stupid.
Does anybody have the link?
Leaving tomorrow for DS to pick up my buddy's M29.
LT
He did not want anything bigger than the M-29 and Dave said two 1350's would not fit.
From the beginning.
1. 21' Eliminator rigged at DCB with twin ModVp Mercs.
2. 22' Eliminator rigged at DCB with triple 300 Drag Mercs.
3. 22' DCB with twin 300 Drag Mercs.
4. 26' DCB with...
Yes the owner has a buddy. It is getting to be a habit going with him to pick up another DCB. This will be number 8.
This one is the replacement for the F-29 he bought last year. We will pick up the M-29 at Desert Storm.
RD is right on the speed. The F-29 went 144 last year and this...
