Photo from Checkmate. 24' by 8' 3" beam boat.

Put any high Hp on it you want.

Figure around the high 60's, but not the 70's, with a 250 Hp O/B.

Small boat builder. Comes with or without walkthru opening windscreen.

Good looking boat. Kind of a "retro but updated" style that Glastron should look at. Guns 'n Roses cover of "live and Let Die" is playing in my head...

seems like a pain in the boat to get in the bow with the solid dash and no cut out in the windshield.

There is no swim deck or a place to hang out while sitting and saving gas.....

With or with-out walk thru on this one. Your choice.

I like it. Where I have boated lately, outboards would be a real nice thing to have. Problem is, they only come on smaller boats. Nice to know someone is going in this direction.

With (top small photo) or with-out walk thru (larger bottom photo).

Lighter, more towards the bow (where one wants it in a vee bottom) without. Split the dash and windscreen and you need to add matieral to both to get the strenght back up.

A friend of mine has the 20' version of this boat. It hits low 70's with a 225 optimax. Very nice boat, with impressive fit & finish.

Come to think of it, at 70+ mph, the kids might blow out of the bow....

looks like very little room in the cockpit, especially behind the front seats. i think the loss of space and expense of a big outboard purchase would have many preferring an i/o with swim platform.
