The boat is finished now I have to get going on the motors. Splashing in two weeks or less

Added strainers, notice the matching HP500 on/off valve

Bilge ready for motors with new mounts used a empty block to line them up.

Hydraulic helm is finished I'm not to sure about the steering column I may change it to a anodized purple to match the wheel.

another view, notice the purple D-hooks on my lanyards they make hooking up and taking off a breeze. About a buck each at Home Depot

One last picture, the boat waxed and ready This is the first picture with the fairing. When I have some time I'll try to do a old vs new shot. May not sell fast but it sure does change the looks. "there's a ass for every seat". Scott

OK here is my 2 cents on the windshield/windscreen debate... If ya want a windshield buy a cruiser! Come on now... these are powerboats!

This picture was taken yesterday on the intercoastal in Daytona. The ocean was churning em up good yesterday also!

Scott. Like the vette in the background. Had a 96 red convertable that i sold last year... only had 24,000 miles on it! Great car, should have kept it.

ChrisK - You better change your prop it looks like you are getting a little too much bow lift.....

Scott - Where did you get the shut off valves? My strainers dont have any and next year I would like to put a couple in. I am planning on 1st splash on thursday!!

That is something you will never see our boats do.

I guess your right on that account.... I cant see some of your bigger boats flying through the air like that. Believe it or not I am actually looking for another boat.. This one is GREAT, never had any issues with it that where not self inflicted (the trim pump resivour (sp?) broke on a hard landing) But i am bitten, and bitten hard... I am searching for a larger boat that I can "steal" kinda like i did this one... (guy bought the boat, was going under, etc etc etc) Other than that I have had no issues with the boat. I would recomend one to anyone looking at buying a boat like this.
