Wow! What a fantastic boat. Looks great. One thing you might check is the bottom for flatness, particularly in the aft 1/3. I am sure you already have, but just in case, as that sort of thing may cause such issues. It is difficult to see if it is floating or bottomed in those pictures but doesn't seem to float nose heavy from what I can see?

Great job!!!

Thanx again guys!!


Not sure about hours but i think i had it don't in about 3 - 4 months if i remember correctly!

I later on put aluminum L channels running on each side of the engine and the turning was day and nite difference!! I think its a must on this boat. The other thing that is a must which i havent done yet is spray rails!! Another thing i added was a 10" hydraulic engine lift.. which i thiink helped a bit in trimming the bow up a bit.. plus it makes the boat look much cooler :p

Havent been using the boat for quite a while... and its still not 100% complete... soon ill finish it up and maybe post a few more photos!

Cheers
Zane
