    The new boat just came out of the mold last week, and is headed to Dean Loucks for paint very soon. This boat will be powered by twin Illmors with Indy drives. I will post more info as it becomes available.

    Welcome!!

    I'm guessing by the rendering that this will be a full stagger?

    Looks great!

    Yes, the boat has a full "liner" and interior under the deck.

    I had an opportunity to see both the new Warpath and the new boat shown here. The attention to detail is very impressive. The inner liner of course without the deck on looks huge. This will be very much a cruiser, but a high speed cruiser for sure. Can't wait to see the finished product when it comes back from TAOD paint shop. I hope they show this boat at the Miami Boat Show next year, it really deserves to be seen by the boating public, they did an excellent job!!

    Powerplants? V-10s, V-8s or the Eco-Boost V-6s?

    I noticed that War Path has no notch in the transom and the latest Chief looks to have a notch from the pics I have seen. I am guessing this is due to the drive configuration selection? Is there anything scientific to the decision or is this just based on many, many years of experience?

    OK, let's see Yes V 10's

    Yes the Notch is removable, it really depends on the X dims, and drives. With all the distance on the drives, no notch was needed on Warpath.
