Well, my guess is everyone at the show will be working until Odark30 getting their acts together.. I have NEVER seen so many unfinished booths, and unpacked crates the day before the show opens as I saw as late as 4:00PM today.. It's gonnna be a lonnnnng night for folks over there.. I heard the weather really interfered with getting trucks n boats over there yesterday, putting everyone behind schedule..
Up to my $$$ in alligators this year, plus a bum foot, so I wont be getting around as much as usual.. Got a few pics for ya though..

Cig has a Marauder 50 with trip 1075's in their booth that wil knock your socks off.. Gaurd chased me away, but I got a few pics.. There's a bassboat in the Velocity booth?? :wtff Donzi has a Shelby Blue ZR that is going to steal he SHOW IMO, but I promised I wouldn't release pics yet.. MTI is a bit tame this year, but the Ferrari themed boat is wicked cool.. OL has the new OSG race boat on display.. Bottom been tweaked a bit :eek: :eek:

Anyways, I'll work on some more pics, but here's a few for now..

Scott, all I can say is you are the man. Year after year you have been the first to bring us photos from the Miami show and I cant tell you how much we appreciate it. Once again we have pictures from the show before the doors have even opened on the show and it is thanks to you.

Thanks Again Scott

fubar260 02-14-2008 09:31 PM

Madpoodle 02-15-2008 06:08 AM

Heading into the office to rest, I'll resize post some more pics later...

OL shrink wrapped the bottom of the boat yesterday.. OOOPS :D :D :D

Tam, Last year @ LGDO the Critter decided to start in gear. Squashed my right foot between it and the dock, then I tossed it into reverse to avoid the boat in front of me and squashed it again.. Luckily it's the gas foot, not the clutch foot as the Bullitt doesn't come with an auto :) :)

Tamburello 02-15-2008 12:56 PM

Ouch, nothing like using the foot as a fender. Anything to save the gel on the Critter, right. :rock The loud pedal on the Bullitt should provide some rehab therapy for the bum foot.

Didn't Cigarette do that when they had the cut down record attempting boat? Or maybe that was Fountain?

That 38ZR is sweet!!! Simple graphics, the blue with white racing strips looks great and I think powerboat said it ran 112MPH.
The F440 MTI is cool also, they do a great job with the theme boats and the detail looks great as well.

Very cool.

Yep. 112@5300.

Panther 02-16-2008 12:46 PM

Who's going to the show?

Would someone be willing to stop by the Bravoshop booth and say hello to Dean for me???

I like the donzi too! Reminds me of a Shelby Cobra or the smaller donzi's! :rock

Is it me or am i the only one who doesn't like the theme boats? They seem to be kind of a waste. I appreciate the time and effort that go into it but seriously who wants to buy it? MTI builds a sick boat and I know Randy is a heck of a boat builder I just dont get the theme boats??? Just my 2 cents. And wasnt OL suppose to debut a new rig? They dont seem to have the buzz like they have had in the past, as far as the Miami boat show is concerned.

Isn't it great to live in the USA! CHOICE is a great thing.

Agree... Like the Superman MTI... that guy must have collected comic books or something.... poor guy. :ev1l danc:ev1l danc

Panther 02-17-2008 02:59 PM

Personally don't like all the crayola boats that are being built today, along with the theme boats...

I also see a lot of newer boats...2002-2004 that already have faded decks.... WTF... It'll be interesting 10 years from now to look back, it might be the same as Pink Apache's from the 80's and early 90's... ;)

CBlakeNS 02-17-2008 04:48 PM

Awesome boats, and pictures!

fubar260 02-17-2008 05:47 PM

Outerlimits is supposed to debut the new SV43, which is the OSG PowerboatP1 boat; thats at the booth @ the Convention Center.

The Superleggera is supposed to be in water @ the marina; its 40 or so feet?

And maybe its just because they arent debuting the new cat like last year...
Or maybe there just isnt rampant photo coverage (SO FAR)...

oh well.
(EDIT--> Forgot to ask; how many boats are on display by Outerlimits?)
