Just saw this today. Sure looks like a SC 23 to me!

It is based on the SC hull. See the threads below for more discussion.

Blizzard,
Ed Mancini and I looked at this boat at this year's Providence boat show. I wasn't too impressed with the fit/finish for the amount of money they were asking (~$130K as you see it). Perhaps he has some better examples now, but the one at the show was not finished well.

Aren't jet drives really inefficent? I read somewhere that they only 2/3's as efficent as prop driven propulsion systems.

I too saw the Prov. boat show example and it was laughable after you saw the price tag.

I wonder if they have sold one?

May have been the owners of the Company but I've seen the boat tucked in at a house just over the Middlebridge in Gansett. That one boat has seen some rough use on it as it was their prototype, and habeen tweaked and retweaked for several years now. But yes, it looked like crap at the boat show...
