Is this really an Eliminator???

There is sooooo much you don't know Grads, it would be easier to list the little you do. Between here >[ ] < and here.

Did you know they made these? NO GRADS, ITS NOT A JET!!!


Did you even know that they started by making v drive flats? Bob actually started by putting a deck he designed on other manufactures bottom and making it look like it was a different boat. Then he designed his own bottom, but probably should have kept using others because none of his bottoms worked to well.
It wasn't until he hired Ron Ehde to tool the bottom for a small version of the 30 ft Chris Cat for use as a JET, that the company amounted to much. It was the 19 ft Daytona tooled by Edhe and then the 21 and 23 that things took off. Before the 19ft Daytona, it was all V drives and a few jets and the occasional outboard.

I guess I don't understand how you guys let Grads get under your skin. Well maybe I should back up, I used to let him get under mine until I figured out that he's harmless. He really means no harm. He picks on just about everything, albeit Jets are probably his favorite boat to pick on. Funny, there were several 100+MPH jets in Parker this weekend and I would bet good money Grads would never make a passenger pass in one. So his jet comments don't really mean to much to me. Very similar to you putting the smack down on DCB's, I personally see no difference.

Every site has its court jester or jesters. I'm not saying Grads is ours, but he does allow us to pick on him and he doesn't shoot back much normally. And I'm not calling him the village idiot either, because he's actually very intelligent. I learned a long ago not to judge a book by its contents. Especially if that book only shows the pages it wants you to see. Anyone can judge a book by its cover

Your note above is very good information. With almost every factual post you make, I too learn something. So thank you for that. But don't get too down on the people who are running around in this place, they're actually people too
