Love to hear the back stories on these things.

This boat has it's name for a reason. It's flown off its trailer on the highway and didn't cause any damage to the hull. This boat has had 3 engines in it. The first engine was taken out and put in a race boat. The second engine blew up (pushed it to hard) and now were on the third engine! Let's see how long it lasts.
Painted by my dad about 8 or 9 years ago.

Great History! I can vouch for Tahiti's Built in Toughness! They are very hard to kill!![]()

I just wish they were full stringer boats! Eliminator made a few hulls similar to the Tahiti and they were full stringers. I've thought about getting one of those as my next project. Or maybe even a 77 miller jet bubble deck.
Thanks for reading about my boat! Hope you liked its story haha plenty more to tell. So much I can't even fit it all on this website!! Haha
Tahitis are well made boats. In the low profile class there wasn't a need for full stringers as the hull's angle was fairly sharp in the nose allowing for the deck to support the structure. The stringers in it are only good for the motor and supporting the jet pressure on the bottom of the boat.
