Boat does look beautiful. I myself, have one concern though. I mentioned this awhile ago when I saw pics of the original canopy. The canopy has 0 support in the forward corners. Windows alone will not support the roof in a high speed rollover imho. Polycarbonate will flex and stretched acrylic will most likely shatter if subjected to a hard blow. Again, this is only my opinion. I think they are doing a fabulous job on this boat but you may want to address this with them considering the amount of power you will be installing. The corners could definitely use some support along with a,full side to side bulkhead under the roof and a stringer running up the center front where the glass halves meet.

Good to hear on the roll cage. Have some pics of mine but can't post here. What's your plan, race and pleasure? If so which setup first?

Conversations I had with Mark he was planning on racing as much as he can. Looking forward to seeing the boat run, it's an exceptional piece.
