Just realized the pictures are back. Finally got to the trailer... last year. The boat looks a runs great. So much so that a good friend at the lake decided he needed it. It didn't go far and I have first shot to buy it back if he sells it.
This was my last good run in it. My wife was in the boat for the first time in 2 years and finally wanted to go fast. Hard to tell from the video but it is hung out pretty well. Don't judge the choppy throttle. I found that quickly getting the nose back down kept it from getting out of shape, especially with a passenger you don't want to scare. I'll miss this one more than the 40'.

Just read over the whole thread. Love your work. I was hoping to bug you about buying it. Oh well. I would love to find a flat deck to do what you did.

There are a couple out there. I started with a pretty presentable boat (gel and glass) which saved me a lot of money over some of the options I see if I were to do another one. This boat didn't go anywhere. My dock neighbor bought it as a collectors item.

Just read this thread again....Matt, this 27 is a cool boat. Hopefully it is still close to you. This was just about a 90 MPH boat? Are you still boating at all? Hope all is well in Texas!

Matt still has it, he bought it back. Saw it just the other day.
Hopefully get some side by side pics with the 28 Saber this year.
