In a few months my new RAFF29 wil be introduced (and the RAFF195 (19.5ft)) and believe me, It has nothing to do with a phantom 28 because I want to build boats for todays performance boaters


Anything like a Cyclone 19 won at the worlds ?????????????????????????????

Fuller,

I am sorry next time I will ask you what I can do or not ok.
The boat in the picture was one of a customer, I repaired the powerlift and installed the trim buttons on the steering wheel. The boat was built in Holland by a guy named Willem. The graphics I did not like but who am I to decide?

Also next time when somebody asks me to work on a phantom I will ask him if it is a steve baker built. If not I will burn it OK?



Tell me: what is the copyright or patend n° of the phantom boats? What designer permission?
The other day a guy came to me with a mold of a step to enter a truck and asked me to make some steps out of it. I did not ask the designer of the step or the builder of the mold if I could make some steps out of the mold.

YOU SUSPECT ME? What exactly is your frustration?
You do not know everything and please don't call me liar unless you are in my face

I made a white one for a German customer (I did not put any stickers on it) and a black one.
The black one I still have as a bare hull

In Holland there are several 28ft

Like I said before todays standards for performance boats are different then when the phantoms were designed.

So I had a back to the future customer who likes very much a 28. I find the builder in Holland who doesn't want to build one but he wants to rent the molds... bla bla end of story

To inform you : the 195 is a boat I make just to try the new proces we are gooing to use for building plugs. The new boats plugs are completely cnc machined. The deck and hull are designed on the computer I will post some drawings if you want to see

More expensive but, the boat so much nicer.

I want to have the same lines in the deck true all the models. it's easier also, the machine does the work

Nice photos Jon.

Jon maybe you could enlighten us all and tell us how many & what Phantoms you have owned over the years? Or any other performance boats for that matter.

Just interested
