.sunlover Posted May 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2015 Ran the boat down the channel of the Columbia, nonstop answering questions about the boat. This pic is from a lady in a boat full of people interested in the boat. Today was awesome! Quote Link to comment
Scgreen620 Posted May 11, 2015 Report Share Posted May 11, 2015 I say you patent it ..that's if you haven't. Some one might steal your idea and become rich .. 1 Quote Link to comment
.sunlover Posted May 11, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2015 I say you patent it ..that's if you haven't. Some one might steal your idea and become rich .. We're patent pending ATM, so we have a little safe time before we have to do the whole patent, but with the response we got, we're probably going to just do the whole patent after a few sales.

Lockleaf Posted May 11, 2015 Report Share Posted May 11, 2015 You might want to talk to your lawyer about publicizing it like this. It's possible that this type of public discussion has started a countdown during which you have to file your patent or risk it being considered invalid. Just a friendly heads up Quote Link to comment

.sunlover Posted May 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2015 This is my boat, I went black for accessories, like storm trooper look, I always liked that, I'm thinking black cargo net on the back for the life jacket and whistle, maybe eventually a fishing pole holder, and its done :) Quote Link to comment
.sunlover Posted May 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2015 Oh, and definitely neoprene foot and knee grips, but they'll all have that. Quote Link to comment
.sunlover Posted May 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 Funny, in kindergarten they sent me home with pictures to color as homework, because I had trouble staying in the lines, now freehand with a rotozip :) 1 Quote Link to comment
tr8er Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 The lines are slick. And the shape looks good. But I question the deck lines. I'm thinking a flat deck behind the captains chair would be very helpful for any accessories that I may wish to carry. Such as a cooler or tackle box. Just a thought. 1 Quote Link to comment

We have a plan for the rear section, but so far, it's a secret... Quote Link to comment

.sunlover Posted May 30, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2015 My boat is back in the water, both port holes installed, 2 fish nets and vinyl hammers of thor are in the mail, i just hope the boat looks half as sick as i envision it in my mind. I got all the accessories made in usa too, so still a 100% usa product. For some reason, photo bucket stopped letting me upload, it says it will, but doesn't, so I can't show the boat with the port holes. 1 Quote Link to comment
.sunlover Posted June 1, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2015 Photobucket is working again, I can't put the video to public without access to the full sight, my computer is down, so just cell phoning it in. Quote Link to comment
datsunfreak Posted June 2, 2015 Report Share Posted June 2, 2015 Sorry if this was already covered, but what's the weight limit on it? Quote Link to comment
.sunlover Posted June 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2015 Sorry if this was already covered, but what's the weight limit on it? It will float 600lbs, but of course would be a lot less sporty. The sponsors wouldn't plane up right for cruising, we think 300lbs or less would work better. Quote Link to comment

I really dig this design, so thought I'd better ask first. ^_^ 1 Quote Link to comment
.sunlover Posted June 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2015 The boat will float you, no problem. My accessories came in today, the black seat is in the boathouse, and the neoprene foot pads for stand boarding are just around the corner :) Quote Link to comment
