Excuse Me Dave!!!! I felt pretty good about going the same speed as a factory test with more people and fuel. The boat would be roughly 2mph faster with Herrings but lose mid range acceleration. The 38 w/ 600's is 12mph faster in the mid range than a 525 boat. We will have a 38 at the Miami Show with the new cockpit (bolsters & dash) and painted by Mitcher T. See you at the Chicago Show & hopefully Miami.

As for the pictures, I will post some. Scott had sent me some very good ones, somehow I deleted them. All I have are ones with it on the trailer in the yard.
