Well.... Probably time to get the build thread going.

Purchased the boat last week out in Beaumont, CA.

Dropped the boat off at my buddies shop this past Tuesday evening.

He's already tearing her down.

Unfortunately, the non skid probably can't be saved. There was a flat recess for the jet in the back that will be filled. The whole keel will be beefed up and balsa floor will be added with new stringers. I am having him throw another layer of glass on the floor to beef it up since it is pretty damn thin.

Boat will be capped and the well in the back will be filled flat.

Does anyone know the history on this boat? The guy I bought it off of said that he got the boat out of Signal Hill.

And if anyone is interested, this was my 1st Mini Schiada build that I finished back in 2015.

Boat has ran great over the years, but something is locking up in the outboard. Luckily I have another Tohatsu 40HP that is sitting in my garage that I can throw on her.

I got 3 F'n mini boats I need to get rigging for. I might need to stand on a corner a couple nights a week to support this addiction
The Daytona is gonna outrun them all😉

Why does this stuff always seem to find its way to Beaumont?

So it’s two Daytonas and one schiada? I was thinking two shiadas and one Daytona 😂
I have 1 Schiada that was rebuilt back in 2015.

I have your old 12' Daytona that just got the gel/glass done. Now time to rig.

I have the other 12' Daytona that I picked up a few miles from my pad in Ladera Heights. That is currently in my race trailer and will be dropped off in a few days.

Then last week, I was the (un)lucky summa bitch that was 1st to send the previous owner a message and we striked a deal. As much as I don't really feel like rigging 3 more minis, it's going to be awesome when they are done..

I might try to land a couple triple axle jet ski trailers and convert them to 2) Schiadas on 1 trailer and 2) Daytonas on the other. Then sell the 4 trailers that are under the boats now.

they weigh 195 ish pounds, a yamaha 50 clamp is a direct bolt on to get you 3 ram trim. Build a 56 ci block with sst 60 sleeves and you have a little ripper.

195lbs isn't bad. I must have read something differently when I was looking at the weight last week!

My wallet wishes that I'd rather be addicted to drugs. But in the long run, my son and daughter are going to fricken love their Mini Daytonas. Plus, If one of my mini Schiadas break, I'll have a spare ready to rip

Gotta Come down to the boat races when we race and we bring our GBR shirts and hats

She's one step closer.

I had to switch motors on my red mini. The previous motor that has been on there for 10 years was not spinning over so well. I need to have someone go through it. The newer Merc 40 HP laying next to her is for one of the 12' Daytonas I'm building
