Classic wooden speedboat with American flag beaching at high speed, water spraying from hull.

A Water Born Hot Rod

Her styling and bright mahogany topsides give homage to the Classic Gold Cup racers of the 20’s. But that’s where the similarities end. Custom designed by Van Dam along and joining the custom hot rod craze, below her waterline she’s pure modern performance. Jacqueline was designed with a stepped bottom deep V, a custom-built Arneson drive, cleaver propeller, K-planes, and is powered by a hand built, fuel injected V8 575hp Saris Racing Engine.

Even her color scheme breaks out of the classic boat mold; charcoal gray upholstery, radical deep violet bottom paint, wired gold boot stripe, and a canary yellow engine accented with violet and polished stainless chrome. Whether in the water or shown off on her custom trailer, there will be no doubt this boat was built to fulfill a need for speed.
