Posted - 12/07/2011 : 11:21:03 PM Xcelerator Boatworks is pleased to announce our newest project and even more excited to announce who its for. XBWH03 will be a 36 center console for Nascar Sprint Cup series star Greg Biffle. While away from the track, one of Gregs biggest hobbies is boating and fishing. While in the market for a new versatile fishing vessel he wanted something custom, reliable, fast, and fun and dry to ride on. After just a few weeks of talk and shop visits, Greg has chosen Xcelerator to construct his newest fishing boat and we couldnt be more excited. We are currently working with Greg on the design process and should start construction the first week of January. The boat will have twin Yamaha 350 outboards and a walk in console with galley, head, and forward cabin/seating. The boat will have an engine bracket set-up resulting in an LOA of 396. We will also be displaying the boat at a few major boat shows next fall and winter. Please stay tuned for further information on the specs and renderings along with the start of construction.

Awesome stuff. What are those plastic tubes inside the back of the center console used for? I have them on my boat and haven't figured out what to do with them yet :)
Hard casting lures, jigs, etc. that you don't want swinging around or getting beat up loose in a drawer.

Posted - 11/30/2012 : 2:56:34 PM Wow, what an outstanding thread this has been. Beautiful boat and craftsmanship. It's been educational, interesting and fun to watch the entire process and finally get to see it on the water performing as designed.
Be proud, very proud.
Mark Pioneer 222 Sportfish Yamaha F300 Yeah, but do you consider a dog to be a filthy animal? I wouldn't go so far as to call a dog filthy but they're definitely dirty. But, a dog's got personality. Personality goes a long way.

Posted - 10/10/2012 : 3:50:00 PM I think the hardtop opening is a little bigger than it appears in pictures. Yesterday we had a 6'5" 250lb guy go through it! |

Posted - 10/10/2012 : 2:45:37 PM Every time I look at these pictures of this gorgeous boat I find something else to say, 'wow look at that'. It looks to me like it would be difficult to climb up on the fly bridge. Is that a ladder to climb up through the square hole, or are you supposed to get up some other way. I'm a big guy, there is no way I could fit through that hole, and I cant see stepping up on the fish cleaning station either. Absolutely fantastic boat, more boat builders need to show their customers how they construct their boats.
Or maybe they don't --
