turned out nice......its cool because a lot of those old school 38s and 42s can be had quite reasonably and you can run them as a work in progress and still be out on the water

as long as I could get 80 out of it Id be more than happy.....I mean sheeit you can have a 100mph Vee and cats will still pass you at 130

Trick is to have a setup that runs fast and dosen't blow stuff up.
