If Inhad to do it again, I’d do something like you did.

One thing I’d consider is that the engine room gets a lot of fresh air from the gunnel vents. You have blocked that completely off, from the looks of it. Maybe drill a couple 3” or so vent holes on the sides.

again, nice work.
thank you and the side vents i filled in because they were those bulky ugly plastic chrome vents and the holes they cut were a mess so i wanted to start fresh. There will still be vents thinking naca ducts like the newer race boats had!

holy ****, small world. I dont know how I stumbled upon this post, but I am 99% sure that was a local to me boat, used to see it out in Puget sound all the time. Amazing work! I have a picture of it on the other side of the dock from my pachanga that really shows the width differance.
