I know Biggus is often full of chit... is that why the boat is that high on the trailer, so as to keep it clean? Or is a 4WD trailer? Ya need to spread them bunks out a chine or two.

Great work.

She sure looks much better without the bottom paint! That's one nasty job isn't it? I've done it a few times before on a previous boat that stayed in the water. (NOT a go fast. ) Always went back with new paint so prep was easy. How did you get the shine back in the gelcoat?

Does not even look like the same boat. I was always sad when I looked over at that boat to see how she took care of it (or didn't). Glad it has found a new home and hope you enjoy it.

Awesome! Get you a bigger prop and gain some more speed!! Call Throttle Up. They may have a test prop you can try.
