wass up , is that 28 ts going to be a sit down boat ?
it seem to have very low freeboard and would be perfect for a sit down speedster

Hey Mike,

This new 28' will be a stand up boat with drop outs. In the near future a sitdown boat will be in the works with a seamless finish ( no rubrail ).

Hey JO:

Boat looks awesome!! It will be really nice to see the performance numbers compared to mine. Hope all is well.

Now we talking! A side to side dash, half cabin, sit down, rear seat cover, my Arrow 572/875 engine, all black. There you have my 28 Twin step Pantera!

I can only agree on that! Perhaps a very thin fine rub rail mounted on the "seamless seam" though.

Take a look at how Donzi did it on their 38 ZRC with removable neck rests to be able to mount the rear seat cover plate.

no rub rail looks sweet.

That is going to be awesome!
T-Mone were talking the other day about a sit down 28TS.

Love the new boat.

Reasons not to send the exhaust out the hull sides.

-Aims the exhaust noise toward the shore. No big deal on the ocean but much more important on lakes.
-Makes a beautiful sounding V8 sound like a poorly tuned 4 cylinder.

Donzi & others messed with this exhaust out the sides in the 80s and abandon it thankfully. It sounds so bad. The biggest market was in selling the crossover pipes to try to get it to sound better. They didn't help enough.

Chris Craft is about the only one I can think of still doing it and it sounds awful.

My 2 cents for whatever its worth....

Very respectfully,
Pismo
