Sv29/ilmor 725/indy
Hi All,
A few weeks ago we placed an order with Outerlimits for a new SV29 that we will keep somewhere in Florida, so that we have a boat for vacations. As some of you will have read on other threads i am normally fairly hands on with my boat building and fitting out. As we live in England most of the time about the only hands on i am going to get in this build is re-profiling and blue printing the indy lower unit which Ilmor has kindly shipped to England for me so that i can carry out the modifications.
Here are some photographs of the partially completed casting.

Looks great. That boat is going to move!!! Was wondering when someone was going to fit an illmor in there. Look forward to seeing the finished product. Post pics when done.

Looks great! Obviously you have a great relationship with OL and Ilmor.
I am curious though, will they still warranty the drive after the mods?
Would they do so if the everyman did the same?

Great work, Peter. Looks like I'll have to find another buyer for the BatBoat! Did you talk to the Wilsons about the work that they've done on these lowers?

Beautiful work!
Just curious on your on thoughts regarding the trailing edge, whether to have a square edge or sharp edge? Also, did you do you anything to offset the symmetry of the skeg because it is a single engine application?
