Thanks Ratickle, Ken Bird was 4th in the points going into the Championship weekend and with some help from the (Joint * Mission) Defender 21 Scout
boat we managed to pull out a 3rd place finish for the season in the National Championship race on Friday. Although my boat is set up as a pleasure boat it was able to perform good enough to keep up with the competition. I can only imagine how it would do if it was set up for a race only boat!

For all those who have been wondering what I've been up to... Well I'm pounding sand again overseas, this time in the "Horn of Africa. I am no longer going by "Defender Powerboats Inc." Defender Industries, Inc. boat supplies, discount marine supplies and inflatable boats" filled a trademark using the name "Defender Boats" which forced me to stop using "Defender Powerboats" since I did not have a trademark. I honestly didn't know this company sold boats, I used the word Defender because I raised my right hand multiple times for 25 years and swore to
"support and "DEFEND" the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; and that I will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over me, according to regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice. So help me God.” Thus came the company name "DEFENDER POWERBOATS"
I have to name the company something different now but it's ok, I'll rebound from this like everything else I've been through before. Thanks to all the people who have supported me here on Serious Offshore. Keep posted for something new
I am working on for our race and fishing enthusiasts.

I can't use the word defender in any way when it comes to the my boats. It would be like me trying to use the word "Apache" in any way, can't happen.
They have the trademark on their blow up boats:

LOL, I think that police officer would have lots of cool Miami Vice like stories. Wish he would have written a book.

For all those who have been wondering what I've been up to... Well I've been pounding sand again overseas, this time in the "Horn of Africa. I no longer go by "Defender Powerboats Inc." I am now officially "MAXIMO POWERBOATS" It took a while trying to find a name that was not officially taken or in use but after months of waiting for the US Dept of Trademarks I have the green light to build the legendary 21 Scout, stronger and lighter than it was built on Miami's "Thunderboat Row". After consulting with Powerboat Race Champion Bob Saccenti, I have decided to start a new project under the Maximo name, a project that Bob himself started long ago. A modified hull section has been layed up and I will soon begin construction of a prototype center console deck. Yes, I will be building a center console "fishing" version not a "police" boat.....to enjoy myself during the never ending South Florida fishing season...
