King for now, but what agrivated my uncle is that the same boat was next in line at the riging shop for turbines right after his. And its some guy from Toronto too! Same boat I believe. So everything the rigging shop learned on Bills, is going to make for a very easy install and rigging on this next one.

But I guess thats how it goes when you are the first to try something. And by first I mean first Turbin in this hull.

And to think, gas has doubled since he ordered it :laugher:


That thing is truly badass. Those trailers look like a hassle.

Why a hassle??? Run where ever you want without any oversize permits, the hull is set up to be cradled the way it's sitting, and the boat is rigged to be able to ride on it's side.
For an oversized Cat it is the only way to travel.

Honestly can't blame him for being a little ticked off. Talk about picking up the R&D bill for someone else :dead: I gotta think though your uncle has some serious seat time in turbine boats....gotta think that is going to help keep him out front Can't wait to see it run

If there's one thing Bill never has to worry about...it's hassle. :laugher: :laugher:

That is such an amazing machine. Can't wait to see it tonight

I'll be up to see and ride in it a little later, just waiting for my DNA tests to come in a few hrs to prove I'm related. :laugher: :laugher: :laugher: :laugher:

That's the Baddest AZZ Boat I have ever seen !

WFSBM !!!

Yup, BL is right, the boat was built with this trailer in mind. all the fill caps, and breathers etc had to be designed for this angle. Big deal really.

He wanted to put a light inside so the cockpit can be seen. It truly is as pretty and amazing as the outside. I told him that would be real trick. I hope he does.

That'd be awesome. As long as the light isn't too hot :winker:

I alwasy wondered about fluids when a cat is trailered like this. I always assumed the tanks have to be nearly empty.

Dry sump drives, and everything else is vented to the top.
See you boys in a few hours.

good point. Do you have to do anything to the boats before tilting them?

Great looking rig BTW.
