martin, the boat looks great... you changed the interior right?
if i'm correct i remember the interior to be a white/aqua/blue fade.
if so, great improvement.

Martin the platform looks good & so does the interior , Actually the whole boat looks great. Excellant job on the resto
I may be interested in a platform latter on. ( Just remember us little guys when you start selling a ton of them. )
Thanks for finding out about the X-dimension , I am not trying to second guess Doug , However I figured that it would be a little higher than that. 15" would put your propshaft right around 7" below the keel which is pretty deep. I can't remember but what year is your boat ? & what year was the last single built ?

I belive your boat was # 19 built , mine was # 21 & I know the one between us ( # 20 ) was also twinn like mine was. I don't know what the last one # 22 was.
Either way what I was getting at whether It was yours being a 95 or the one built after mine 96 or7 being the last time a single was done I would think the X would be a little higher now due to the fact that props now are more accomadating to higher X- dimensions. ( Just my 2 cents )

i did talk with doug about that, my boat orig. cam with a 23p three blade mir. the cav was on the bad side under hard acc. and hard cornering , with the bravo 1 all of that problem was elliminated. i considerd a imco shorty, not quit sure how short i would like to go . i am completly on your side with props out now just consider how much prop the drive you decide on can handle. hope this helps
