Re: NEW Eliminator 430 Eagle
Those are the molds Wellcraft was using to build their 43's. I am surprized that Eliminater didnt notch the transom?? If they used composit core and vacume bag, it will be pretty quick with staggered.

Re: NEW Eliminator 430 Eagle
I looked at those molds to build a boat this time last year when the molds were still at Finco Fabrication who built some boats from those molds, including the boat that set the diesel powered record from San Francisco to Los Angeles. I did not buy because its a very small 43 footer, I would estimate 6 inches less headroom than a Fountain 42. Like climbing in the trunk of a car. As I understand it, Finco did build some boats for the Military that had extended hull freeboard, and that was straightforward.
By all reports, its a great riding hull even in the Pacific Ocean.
But it sure is a small 43 footer.

Re: NEW Eliminator 430 Eagle
I thought Larry Smith was still rigging the boats under his own name? Has that changed?
I have talked with Larry in the past and found him to be a stand up guy. I am very happy to see that he has these molds with Eliminator (A company that can stand behind there product).

What is it with boat companies..Ive never seen so many trademarks, sub companies and like names .. Glad to see Larry Smith is still involved with building scarabs though..lots of history behind the brand
