Cool pics and great job on that bilge!

This boat has been completely tore down over the winter. My mechanic redid the transom as he is switching out the TRS and crash boxes for Bravos. He is also painting the boat so it is all sanded down right now. It looks like just a hull. I doubt it will be ready for this summer as he is starting to get busy with other work, but when its done, it should be awesome!

An update:
My mechanic completely gutted the boat over the last year. Here is what has been done:

-Side tanks removed. He had a 265 gallon custom floor tank made.
-3 man bolster gone. He cut out the flat part of the dash and is going to have twin bolsters up front(farther forward than the 3 man). A rear bench is going in. I believe he had to build/modify the hatches to make this work. There is a built in cooler running the width of the boat behind the rear seat(under the hatch)
-Motors rebuilt and painted...again. This time with bigger blowers. Should dyno 750-800 HP
-Transom was replaced and cut for the bravos
-Completely sanded the hull and currently it is white primer
-Stripper pole on actuator going into the bilge

I'll try to get some pics soon. This should be up and running next summer at the latest!
