Love your way of thinking Bradford, now how about some pics. When is it to be "Complete" enough for a splash test.

Been a long road.

Felt pretty disillusioned and depressed about the whole thing, even woke up having nightmares about it.. I'm not kidding. In one she came back with the scuppers plumbed to flow water INTO the hull, another she was all finished. Absolute perfection. Except that she was painted red white and blue.

In the grand scheme of things though, most people in the world would pay money to have my problems.

Everything that is finished looks beautiful.

I haven't been on here much due to her not yet being finished, but will post up a report when she does finally get to come home.

Hopefully very soon.

Thanks for your interest.

Marc finally put a T-Top on it





slowed him down to 68 in this heat. He's put Chris Carson Reeds in it, finally changed the tuners so they match. Put Brucato ECM's on and spinning either 24 or 26 picth choppers(same speed, different rpms). He says he's going ot put the Brucato SVS on it, we'll see

I was thinking that he must plan on staying in the river and having fun with it. If it is that strung out, don't you think 3 footers will have those motors overheating again ??? SVS he does want to play. It does look normal with the top, but not the cowls. Cool Project

no more overheating issue, low water pickups fixed that. He's only running about 50 in that picture. That thing still launches like a drag boat, even with the 26 choppers. He's fished it several times this year, it plays off shore as well. Ive seen fish blood stains on the deck, well at least they were there for a little while
