Can we talk Schiada here???

Schiada is the 57 bel air of boats. Its a hot rod that owners will throw ridiculous power and $$$ at.

They are solid hulls and ride very good for there size. I have seen older schiada that were well rigged as well as boats that were nothing special. I would wager the quality started getting really good in the last 15-20 years.

There more a boutique builder....you place an order with a huge deposit and they call you when its ready.

Lots of talented riggers have worked there magic on blank hulls.

There is a white and red Howard with a big blown injected motor here in Parker that hauls ass I would say properly set up the flatter the bottom the faster like a Rayson Craft 21 . Tub of Fools still holds the GN Kilo record...

A big HP v drive in any variety is a stupid rush...

People spend years re building boats to prices of art work. I would love to have one as my third boat if I won the lottery..lol

I cant honestly say if they were a splash or not i appears that its a highly modified schiada bottom ,when you look at them side by side visually there are alot of differences even in the entry and bow. I have driven and owned both and do not think there is much of a difference in ride or handling example Mike Gs "RexOnes" 21 Schiada and my Hallett are rigged basically identical with the exception of the bottom ,they ride and drive about the same.The Hallett is lighter you can feel it under acceleration and it flexs in rough water The Hallett takes some work getting it off the pad and back in the water going into a fast turn you need to set it down before you enter , hope this helps ...

I keep seeing these Schiadas in the winner's circles of the ski races, over and over. I suppose nobody told these guys about all these superior hulls, of which you speak. I bought a 21 RC that we have thoroughly enjoyed and the people I purchased it from drove away with a license plate "F2 Champ" and it was indeed the world champ who skied behind that old barge of ours.

Schiadas and Halletts are what you drive to sit in and watch the Rayson Crafts race.

Schiadas are cool if you're a hippy.:sheep1:
