Do you have any info on the Bad Boy. By the way, Cleveland Construction Talon is one of the baddest sounding boats out there. Love the motor exhaust combo. Great job in St. Clair

Hello,
My name is Chris, i have all the info on the Bad Boy 32
please see attached photos

Attached are more photos:
This hull and rigging combination runs extremely strong in both calm and rough water! No chine walk, responds well to trim, turns like its on rails. The bottom is very aggressive for its size and is able to achieve speeds in the low to mid 80s with its current set up. We have had the boat dialed in at 92 however we wanted to keep the reliability of the Bandit Racing Engine and bravo ITS XR drive. The drives last on this hull, this is not a combination that will wipe out outdrives every race if you understand how to throttle over rough conditions; moreover, you do not have to baby the drives this is a great set up that you can put hours on without feeling like your going to break every time out. we built this boat for reliability! We have added dual helm switch able steering. The boat displays no signs of chine walk in very calm waters, and excells in rough water with great balance (flying level) and quick response. The interior was originally custom built for a Baltimore Ravens football player - ergo color scheme. The boat can be ready for battle at Patchague NY with the OPA, and i would be happy to guide you. If you would like additional information please phone.

That would be a crazy fast P1 boat.......

It certainly has the design to handle the courses out there now. Take a look at the shots from it running in St Clair.

Thank you for all the recent listings everyone has sent me. I have my homework cut out for me. I have recently recieved 33 listings of some beautiful and not so beautiful boats. Some have even been on the bottom of the ocean, lol. Already put out my first offer. I am serious here and not just spinning props. Still looking for a used 32/36 skater or equivalent (doug wright) with #5's or #6's perferably with no power. Will also consider canopied fountain or equivalent. I will be in Patchogue NY. You cant miss me, I will be with the Bounty Hunter team. Powers on

In todays state of racing, I would make sure I get a boat that could easily race in a multiple of classes in case the class you want ends up with you alone in it. A SCL or SV setup gives you multiple options both bracket and spec.

DrGaryDC

Which Doug Wright? OB's are great boats, but not for P1.

DrGaryDC

We know nothing about outboards. Thats why i want to stay with inboards and #6's.
White 32' Doug Wright no power, #6's. Beautiful boat

Thats a great boat. It won St Cloud, Miami, Sarasota and Patchouge last year. although P1 was limited last year, it ran better then most boats in high classes and passed Taboo last year in Sarasota.
