Nice Boat!!! I think I was there when it was rigged. Mark only made a couple step bottoms with outboards, so you are lucky to find one.

Thanks guys...75 is about it. Need to test some props and setup. It's spinning 26 Hydro's right now. I think this was the first stepped ob hull but I'm not 100% on that...anybody know how many stepped ob's are out there?

Welcome to the family! Great boats - with the weight distribution further aft does she still fly straight like the I/o setups?

Thanks.....Being this was my first experience with a twin ob hull like this I was a bit skeptical about the CG of the boat too. But after the sea trial run we went on all doubt was laid to rest...this boat flies straight and eats up the rough!

I wish I would have gotten a ride in that! It sounded like a great wave monger!
