He is the head tech guy in the field for Cummins. He has been traveling all over the country working out the bugs on the Zues system that is now being installed in the express cruiser market (Sea Ray, Cobalt etc).
I'm proud of him. I got him started in the biz a few years ago and he has really excelled. Check out the project guys

11-04-2008 05:06 PMBoat was at the Lauderdale boat show giving demo rides!
Boat looked good, water was rough so they just ran it out the inlet and came back in to change riders. Boat idled like a go fast boat, wasn't as loud as a BB boat. Only thing they will probably need to work on is the fairing, it is very low and gives very little wind protection.
I would expect to see that rig in Key West.

11-04-2008 05:50 PMI actualy went out on a demo ride. Sweet boat! I loved the sound and torque of the diesels, they estimated mid 70's with the current set up. Overall very nicely done!

11-04-2008 11:21 PMBoat has been well received. It's staying in Florida for a few more weeks to continue testing with Cummins and others, plus some demo rides and a photo shoot. Amazing that the build was accomplished in less than 5 weeks...

11-05-2008 12:50 AMWith the 550hp Duramax motors either staggered twin or trips can be rigged. I agree about the fairing, way too low.
