Real data feedback in the right direction, always good to see.

What paint did you use on the blowers?

I had a local place paint them .. Im not sure what they used .

It has to feel good to have it back on the water. Seeing other people go through these long drawn out builds makes me feel a little better about mine.

Dan says: "I'm the only idiot that puts $XXX,XXX into a flat deck.." Money well spent, I say!

That's definitely the baddest flat deck out there! Looking forward to hearing more about the flex fuel conversion and how it runs on corn, also!

Lol. I spent wayyyy to much money into this thing but the memories and mamories are priceless

I do have to say thou, 2+MPG, 4 hrs of running, 19" draft , 90 miles covered, 5 days never opening the hatch and one $120 fill up is pretty damn nice.
I shoudl have done this second boat deal a long time ago , takes the stress off having to hurry and finish
