I agree with that Tom was the first man i ever worked for in the marine industry, and he is really into tuning bottoms. I would definitely be careful who you choose as in my experience HTM's are fairly thin, light and flimsy unless they have changed on a boat your vintage, So Stress Cracks may just be the nature of the beast. What power is in yours and how fast is it ??

Thanks for the replys guys. It has a it has a procharged 565 cu. in. BBC in it. I've been over 110 with it but never faster. Im most likely gonna sell it, too fast of a boat for me.

Unitek,
You can bring the boat by any time. I can also view the boat if it is local?
Let me know if you need any help.
