What's going on here?! Ron, 3 more days buddy. Actually 2 day 17 hrs.
I have seen the first boat in person and let me tell you guys...:bowdown: Very nice to say the least. Ron has done his homework and doing what he was told he couldn't. Very cool. Good things comin!!! Anyways thought I would drop in and see what was goin on in here. Ron, talked to ya on Sunday around oh lets say 1pm.
Absolutely beautiful, Ron... Now, where are the pictures of the 21 Deck? You know that's what most of your customers are really waiting for, right? We need some competition for the Ultra and Placecraft that average Joe can afford... Keep up the good work... and thanx for keepin' us updated...
Mike
Hi Mike,
The 21 is moving along slowly but is moving along. We are building it from scratch, would take 1/2 the time if it was a splash. No splashing here, Good things are worth waiting for.. We have stopped for a week to get another 19 in & out. We are under a tight dead line to help out the 509 race family get the new 509 race hull built & back on the track.
If anyone wanting a 21 fun deck would like to share thoughts on style for deck lay-out, Side style ect. Feel free to post some pics here. The bottom is a tunnel & We want to keep it close to tommys old fun deck, but would like to hear what boaters out there say they would change.
The only thing that was kind of dated on the fun deck/ultra design
was the pods for the driver and passenger. I would think that if you could
make that transition smoother like the big deck boats Howard 28 or ultra 23 you would have a home run. just my opinion.
Not the intergrated wind shield but the smooth lines.

Damn gorgeous! If my boat would sell i would be on my way up there to pick up either one of those two boats! preferably the capped one!!
Hi RYNO22,
Thank you, I am really happy with it as it was the first boat. Yeah ya find small flaws here & there fix them & everyone works harder at the next hull & from there out. I am super picky & bitch about things. Thanks to the guys building these you will not find a nice lay-up, Alex from west coast tooling is the best there is. That was the reason Tommy used him. There are plenty of proven race hulls laided up by him. These two hulls for sale would cost 13k to 15k bare from any other company around. We really are giving them away at cost, hopefully some one thats always wanted a really nice river / lake hot rod can get one.
I am ready to start rigging the burgandy & orange hull & should have @ $15k in it ready for the water on a trailer & with a killer 427 BBC! Funny thing is some say can't be done. Not True, I came across what was a super nice jet boat, that crashed at the river. It had just been restored. Has a Berk split bowl that was just detailed by MPD, intake, shoe, ride plate, diverter, gagaues, custom billet hardware, SS russel tanks, all new steel braided lines & an fittings, ect. No Motor. I purcheds it for $1,250.00
The motor I got in a boat deal couple yrs ago & after parting out the boat that motor was free. I had my friend Jack Worrell who by luck has build to many race motor to count put a Jack Worrell secret touch to it. So all in all I'm $1,500 in the motor. So let rack it up..
Hull. $7,995.00 ( seats & scoop included )
Trailer $2,500.00
Hardware & pump $1,250.00
Motor @ 650hp $1,500.00
New cables & wiring $300.00
New steering Helm $250.00
Seat skins $600.00
Reg & tax $560.00
Total $ 14,955.00
Doing it when told it can't be done $ PRICELESS $ :champagne: :drnkfr
If anyone says " yeah but I don't have time or space to work it like that " I will help you, I do have the time & space. I am a deal hunter, I track it down & will for you as well.
Dammnnnn... Why isn't this a Deck version like Tommy's Fundeck? I'm sure you already know that if so, you'd have both of them sold as soon as they had come out of the mold... Any rate, I love your approach to finding parts here and there to give the rest of us an opportunity to own a fine boat that other builders want an arm and a leg for... I wish I were there when Tommy sold the mold to his 21 Fundeck... I would have bought it and worked out a deal with a guy like you to build a bunch of them so that everybody with average income [who wanted one] could own one (not like the way it is now with that hull, I.e., only the "big baller" types can buy one of those (as you all know))...
I wish this industry had more guys like you building boats instead of the way it is right now... Wish you all the success in the world my friend...
Mike...
Hi Mike,
Thank you for the words. I am building a mold that is very similar to the old MIRAGE Tommy's old fun deck. There will only be a few changes.
I need a little help from RiverDaves users, Please post a reply if you think you'd buy one if they came one color $12.5K & up to 5 Colors for $14K I think I can put them out turn key from $27k to $31K depending on motor package. That would also come with a trailer. So please post what ya think about pricing & if you or a anyone you know would buy one in any stage. Thanks for everyones help. Contact me to get on a list, When it's time I'll roll right down the list. Again Many Thanks to all the great boating familys out there that allow us to do what we love & keep boating alive. Sincerely, Ron & Crew 1-951-681-0949
Hey Ron i would buy a fun deck one color for 20k complete less motor!
Up date on the 19 cheyenne display hull..
Wanted to post a pic of the seats & scoop. Just pic them up today I think they'll look pretty sweet in the hull. Cut & fit the intake today will post a pic tomorrow if I get back before dark. Thanks for stoppin in.
Very nice Ron! Thanks for your time today, there is only one direction for these boats, and it's both down the track, as well as up or down any river or lake! damn near FLAWLESS in all areas that I saw! I arrived clean as a whistle, left a mess, I was all over the blue/green and silver one! Congrats, its a beautiful boat!:thumbsup
Ron, just curious if the blue, silver and green boat was still for sale? Geee I sure would love to have it.:bowdown: You guys are doing an amazing job and I sure hope to be a part of it. Best wishes my friend.:drnkfr You are good people!
