That would look very cool with a paint job from down the road at Active Thunder. Pat could do someting wild with the engine cowlings as well.
That hull has been used in enough fishing boats I am sure they lnow exatly how it will handle and perform with all the wieght and power hanging off the back.

Looks nice- but 2 outboards seems underpowered for a boat of that size

I really like it, but would not prefer the OB's. I like the swim platorm and open cockpit. Looks like it would be great for entertaining.

A 38 cat loaded with creature comforts being pushed by two outboards just sounds slooooow.
You'd think they'd tweak that hop out of that hull.

get rid of the hook on the bottom, take it to have it blueprinted, at least this is what I was told...also change the laminate schedule. Good Luck.
