Yes that was us leaving North Point last Wed. boat ran great only problem was I lost one back seat cushion but it was worth it lots of fun went to Navy pier and back. As for the wrap it was done by Lajit industries 815-759-9800 great job and its holding up to the water pounding it a high speeds and tied up to the dock with fenders as well.
I will post some video as soon as I can get it back to the water. We just did our first valve lash adjustment and before we put it back together we are waiting on the new two piece valve covers from KE. Instead of removing the headers each time for adjustments two thumb nuts and your there. More time on the water and less wrenching is always a good thing.
The keel guard up front was my idea to protect from trailering in and out. I have a wirless electric winch set up, fast and simple. Loading the boat is a breeze the guard provides a good cushion between the keel and the winch roller up front. Looks cool too.
Thanks for all the interest and comments.
Mikeb4 if you saw it in MD you know what it looked like. As soon as I can find the photos before I will put some up.

That was a tough place to find in MD wound around back in there like that .... it's like someone sold them some waterfront property without access.

I have one further down for beaching, thinking back, I should have bought a longer one and ran it up like that.
