SB that's a wind deflector built into the deck and bolted to risers to deflect the air over the crew.[ATTACH=CONFIG]558350[/ATTACH] Is this what your talking about ? The panel with SCARAB on it.

Wow Dan. Didn't realize when I was talking to you today that you were the one restoring this boat. A real work of art.

Question/observation - With all those fuel fills and vents on the deck, it seems like the crew would be constantly smelling and misted with gas with full tanks.[ATTACH=CONFIG]558258[/ATTACH]

They are what are called a dry break and they do not leak at all they are designed for off road racing you can roll over and they wont leak. The tanks vent over the side of the boat so you don't smell the fumes Dan

Redman: Is Fred Miller still around? Last time I saw him was in Vegas 20 years ago when I picked up Tom's Hacker Craft.
Hope all is well.
