Looks great. Nice job. I believe that is a Washington registration. Where do you keep and run your boat. Our kids live in the Seattle area.

Looking good. I think 18 gal. is a good size. I have 14 and wish I had a bit more. The engine will look great and perform well. I had a '73 650 Merc at first. It started and ran well. However, the Captain didn't like the noise and smell of a two stroke so we went to a Yamaha 4-stroke. Heavier, but v...

Looking very nice. This is bringing back lots of memories of my build, going through the same issues, questions, and resolution. I was going to have hinged seats, back rest brackets, etc. In the end I did none of it. The seats just have a block of wood on the bottom to hold it in place. The back jus...

Congratulations on the flip. It goes fast and easy if you have enough hands. Boat is looking good. I will be interested in how it performs and handles waves and chop.

Jim,
I had some problems with the quick disconnect connectors from genuinedealz.com
They worked loose and fell off. Most of yours are bolted down, so no problem there.

Just a followup. My bolt holes on the motor bracket are 3/4" apart and not the 1" I estimated. So, I moved the motor up 2 holes for a 1.5" extra height. This puts the cavitation plate on plane with the bottom. This should reduce the drag of the motor plate when on plane. At G12 I tried it for the fi...

The engine currently rests on the transom but I believe it is really held by 4 large bolts. It could be suspended above the transom if necessary. However, I would cut some oak blocks to put under the engine shelf. I will have an issue with the steering. I had to cut a notch for the current configura...

I built my Malahini with the standard 20" transom height. My 70HP Yamaha 4-stroke has a height of about 21.5", so the cavitation plate is under water when planing. The bolt holes in the bracket are 1" apart. So, if I move it higher, I would either have the plate above the water (2 holes up) or sligh...

Hi Neal,
We are in with our Malahini. We could take two additional. (Three if lightweights)

Thanks Ray.
Katie and I have our name tags from years past.

Do you still need some breakfast items?
Jim Jathro and I can do waffles and sausage on Friday and Saturday AM. We have done this in the past but there seems to be a lot of breakfast options.
If we have enough breakfast, we could do something else.. Let me know.

Bill,
Jim Jathro's (TwoJs) friend cancelled and I moved up to cabin #10.

This means #13 may still be open.

Katie and I just booked #13.
We will be there Thursday through Saturday night, leaving Sunday.

Thanks for all the great pictures. Looks like nice weather and great times. Wish we could have been there.
Looking forward to G12.

Bob and Katie.

Very nice. Congrats on a great looking boat. Nice to see another Malahini in the water.
