What's the story? Apparently the 30 was a Doug Wright hull? I like that they offer different stages of build and the pricing seems reasonable.

Doug Wright built the molds, then sold them to AMT, AMT then sold the molds to Predator Powerboats.

That is the boat that was at the boat show in Miami next to Skater, correct?

Did you sell it, and what power is going in it?

Yes thats right , no i bought it and gonna put in 2 aluminium ls Engines whit 500 hp in it On drive lines and bravo Xr iTS sportmasters On the transom .
When ready I will put it on the market here in Europe and use as a demo boat and see if I can sell some as there is almost nothing for sale here in the cat market beside ones whit wind propulsion

I will !

A bit later then planned but still worth it I think , I found a set of my always wanted Arneson Asd 7 M drives !
After a week of thinking if I would go that route because we have to fill the notch change the engine mounts and fill the holes that I made for the bravo s again we will throw away a lot of work !
But as it was first my idea to build my dream boat whit those drives and ls engines to get a bulletproof lightweight efficiency boat I pulled the trigger !

So we are back to start again !

That's a big change. Good luck and keep us informed......
