21 liberator/250xs vs 2100 pulsare/250xs

[claupie]

Randy how do these 2 compare ? Same set-up(Speed,handling,safety).

 

[WILDMAN]

Unfortunately, (For Checkmate) there is no comparison. The Liberator will be about 10-12 mph faster. The ride is VERY much smoother in a cat. You can cross a 2-3ft boat wake at 60-70 without letting off the gas. No chinewalk with a cat and you can run 80-90 mph in a 2ft chop and be very comfortable. You can also sit with no hands on the wheel at 100 mph and do it for miles. If you rode in a cat, you'd never go back to a V again!

the problem with the "cat" style boats IMO is there is very little cabin....otherwise they are sweet boats! if you want speed well then thats a no brainer luxury with a cabin for over night stays is awesome! just sayin'

 

[WILDMAN]

YUP! Not much cabin until you get to 30ft.

 

[BADBK]

no wave jumpin either ;(

liberator boats of FL..there are pics of the 30 footer..

 

[claupie]

Are they CM quality ?
Curious for now,but can you give an idea of the cost W/same graphics as the blue 30 footer.

 

[WILDMAN]

The 28 OBX Checkmate has a very nice cabin.

They are very strong, but I'd say the gel work is not nearly as nice. I usually custom paint the Liberators, so they look very nice when done. I also rig them with more $$$ stuff. With paint and all the other stuff, they are usually $52K-$56K. If I put all the same parts and motor as my 21 with the 300xs, the price is about the same. Without custom paint and on a single axel trailer, I can get it down to about $48K with a 300XS and still keep all the cool rigging parts.

 

[fireguy]

That's a hell of a deal if someone wants a real performance boat.

 

[WILDMAN]

I have this one in stock. $53,500 on a single axel trailer

 

[BADBK]

If I had $50k+ I wanted to put on a boat, I'd have a 110mph wildman liberator. BADASS.

 

[WILDMAN]

You can own my twin 280 21 for $55K. Demo boat will be titled as a 2011. 119.5 mph!

100% shore if i had that type of money to throw donw on a boat or when i can.. wildman i will be your way

 

[claupie]

Not familiar w/cats,but are they easy to blow over at high speeds ?

Is this flamer (when you had the 260's on it), the fastest boat you've ever built? Gotta have a special place in Lib Boats of FL history.

 

[WILDMAN]

Claupie, the only cats that have blowover problems are the small 18-19 ft lightweight boats. Usually due to boat wakes or wind gusts. Get your butt down here and go for a ride!

My Flamer had lightly modded 260 powerheads and ran 128.6. They 280's are much more reliable and user friendly.

I have been to Wildman's shop and looked at these boats up close, the pictuers do not do them justice! They are AWSOME! All of Randy's work is flawless!
