Boat is still missing some items, fibergalss bow pulpit and windlass and radar dome and electronic package going in this week. Coaming pads all around the cockpit and some add on handrails he wanted.
Othe stuff just can't think of it now. Looks like top end is going to be around 40 mph and cruise approx 25mph.

I'll tell you, I could see myself in the rig in a few years. They are great boats for the bay and nearshore work. Have fun on her. ;D

I love that cabin. Good place to warm up the supermodels when it gets chilly.

[reelapeelin]

Willy, you an' Jeff gonna have a biggie ol' time on that puppy!! ;D ... that'll get ya out where da BIG FISH play ;) ...

[willy]

Thats the game plan, just found out he is keeping it in a rack store marina right in Atlantic Highlands, will have five minute run to prime fishing in shore and off shore.
I'll tell you guys we took her out on a windy day and were running her thru big boat wakes and chop, when you put those hydraulic lencos down and put that huge sharp bow into the waves it rides sweet and real dry. I was very impressed, did not expect that kind of ride in a medium deadrise boat, even a 26 footer. The drift was sweet even with the wakes hitting you from the big ships in the bay.

wow, I want one ::)

[macojoe]

That reminds me of the Ospray I love so much!! Nice boat!!

[Seacrets]

Great rig. Your buddy's a lucky guy.

[2ndchance]

SWEET!!. I have fished on a 20 CC and it fishes bigger than it looks if you know what I mean. So that one should seem huge.

[parishht]

A good time will be had by all on that sweet ride.

Those are nice seat boxes,
I wonder if they sell them as after market components?

[C YENSEN]

my first thought was.......only one motor ????

I would rather see that thing with twim 150s :-/ ;D
