ELIMINATOR BOATS | Shop TOUR w/ Jake Fraleigh | 2024

[@Nick-xw3dk]

I walked into the shop on a random saturday in 2017. Jake was standing in the front lobby and I introduced my self told him I owned an Eliminator but had never been to the factory, he took half an hour and gave me a full tour just like this on the drop of a dime. I alway have thought highly of him because of that, it was very nice of him to take time to do that for me.

It would be so cool to do a interview with Chris. That guy has a lot of knowledge of boats.

[@Deepimpactocean]

Wild to think they have over 65 committed builds with prices where they are at.

[@markymark959]

Eliminator and DCB both are amazing boat builders with recent ownership changes to keep their top notch builds and new designs coming….Can’t wait to see what they dream up next!

[@JDMarshall-og9vb]

DCB and eliminator and Skater, they're all on different levels, and they're all very nice.

[@dakotaautosales9673]

​@@JDMarshall-og9vbEliminator Isn't even in the same league as a DCB or a SKATER and what about MTI or NOR TECH

[@firstamendment7568]

Fantastic Tour! Jake seems like a real genuine and humble person. His knowledge is extensive and he is so relaxed with all the complexities and numerous builds going on-- quite impressive!

[@donriedl3484]

WOW !!! Awesome tour thank you both for doing this video. Beautiful boats and a lot of them . Amazing.

Is Jakes boat at 12:50 going to be a 27 Speedster with a bustle? If so thats pretty cool looks great so far in the build process. Could be a 25 Speedster hard to tell from the back.

[@RiverDavesPlace]

I’d guess it to be more of a 25.. ;)

[@JDMarshall-og9vb]

I understand you gotta make room for other molds and other things. I probably would have done the same thing. Just cut up the mold if I didn't have any buyers. Now that being said, I actually would have bought the mold if it was for sale. So if you have any more molds, you are willing to sell, please let me know

[@Harlo86]

I was hoping you were going to say they were working on some new eagles or a new v bottom. I first visited eliminator when I wanted to purchase a procharged 28 eagle 7 years ago for a great deal. I wish it wouldbe worked out, I'd still have it today. Dave how do you feel about them discontinuing the 25 and 28 eagle. Also with so long of backorder why build so many boats at one time? Is it to have a certain amount of capital locked in continuously to keep the employees paid and business running? I would think some customers just buy a used 1 to 5 year old boat rather than wait.

[@RiverDavesPlace]

If nobody was buying eagles they had to do what they had to do.. as far as builds they are building that many and still have the backlog

[@darylwright3393]

Anyone know what boat model that was towards the end of the video with the rare vintage green metallic paint?

[@Gabe-cs8kh]

1969 Eliminator VDrive

[@Harlo86]

Does eliminator make any boats that are completely fiberglass?

[@itsmarkcameron]

Question of the day Dave : if Chris is with Eliminator now will they ever produce his 29? Or who has the molds now.

[@RiverDavesPlace]

All of the laveycraft molds are for sale for one lump sum Of 60k

[@itsmarkcameron]

That 29 has always been one of my favorites. Always wanted one. I hope someone brings it back to life..!!!

[@brianburkhardt771]

No boats, why look then

[@RiverDavesPlace]

Did you really not see any boats in that video? WTF?

[@martinreagan5083]

Dr Swears

[@robertm2172]

Wood in a boat. Why?

[@martinreagan5083]

What a waste of just buy a good ski boat

[@brandonwa2498]

Bro, there’s no comparison

[@trentonbriones2381]

Different animals. It's like comparing a suv to a supercar. Both cars but way different.

[@smoothoperator1083]

A Fem Boat? 😂😂😂😂 No thank you!😂😂

[@crf4502]

I used to think the same thing until I rode in a 25 ft with dual 300 racing outboards. I was blown away by the boat and engines. Boats should be like golf clubs. One for every different need.
