No this doesnt need a Special Splash plate to block water from coming into the back of the boat...

[Abruptly Insane]

I don't get it. This gel coat scheme flows with the lines of the boat and stops before its too busy. Letterly's, well his old boat, was a way busier graphic scheme. Too busy to be honest with you. There was a lot of silver where there's hardly any on this one.

Would that be from the explosion or the twist those hulls are known for? Tired molds as it was so eloquently put before...

[ptc]

Yeah, I'm his friend and I voted for him! I really like the Cole as well and it would get my vote if the Predator was not in the contest. Can you not see in the pic that the Predator is floating in water??? Oh and I have been a member a long time before I cast my vote for him. Dont hate dude!

[Abruptly Insane]

Isn't it at contest to pick a Winner by the amount of votes for the BOAT of the month? And how do you know if it is all of his friends that have voted for Pd-19? Just let me enlighten you he has no friends......... He just has a very clean well thought out New Boat...

[SofaKingFast]

PTC. I would call all my friends too whatever it takes to win. A win is a win. All the boats entered are really clean & bad ass. Hotboat of the month is for the members and we want members.

Thanks stokerdude. :beer:

Pd-19, I should be there. Im going on a house boating trip to cottonwood cove for a week starting saturday the 8th. My brother and I along with our families wil be off the boat friday morning. We plan on driving down and staying friday night and sarurday. Are you going to be there?

[ptc]

Just so you all can relax a bit, I didnt mean anything negative by my comment (like Grads....lol) I just was making a perception of the clean runaway in the voting (good for PD19!) and by all the new members with single post counts.... is all. just connecting the dots here.

My "get wet" comment comes from a world full of trailer queen bling-bling v-drives and its great to see "BOATS" actually out on the water (where they belong)..... Hotboat is doing a great thing here getting people to show their boats.... its awesome, and for me not so much about "the win" as it is about learning about one anothers stuff.... and enjoying it all. The PD19 Predator is cool looking boat, I like all the ideas put into the little details of it, Id like to see more pics of the engine, the rear end.... and the rigging. Im a rigger and a rear end kinda guy!.... DONT Take that wrong! lol Good Luck PD!!!!

Thank you to all our participants. The winner for June Hotboat of the Month goes to "Predator". Congratulations you're prize is being ordered.

[Trafeabs]

Great idea, and if there was a Z of the year, I would vote for Colins Z. The heart and soul he put into that Z, and the Father & Son relationship with this Z is ultimately Priceless.
