AT,

How would you solve the balance issue on an outboard 37 vs. a I/O 37?

No, to the OB's, Show Boat = Staggered 850's ,NXT1 Drives, 5-Blade Cleavers, diamond plated engine compartment, with the mirror's, roomier cockpit, for optional row of bolsters, 6' head and galley area. Always been a fan of the American Flag look, bet AT can do it better than the beakers can. Is that dirty enough for ya MM? Now to just pick the right 6-#'s for tonights lottery.

Nope, no V bottom Active Thunder with outboards. Bring back the 32' Active Cat with triple 300 XS's and you'll have a cool outboard boat!!

I would love a 33 with o/b.Just have to get a killer sound system to blast the sound of a big block though. Some day I want to go back to outboards. Been eyeing the 30 closed deck model of a cc.
still enjoying my "little" 25 for now.:D

The fuel tanks get moved farther back and enlarged; as well as two additional in the gunwales.

We are talking about three rows of electric bolster seating, for a school bus seating arrangement for the ultimate Poker Run experience.

I could see a potential market. NOMOGOFST'S channel is only 2' feet deep at times to his waterfront home in Hudson. He moved to a CC/OB boat so he could go in and out at anytime.

Hey Brian,

You got it! Went from 32" draft to 24", 14" on plane,and the boat will actually idle forever w/o coughing and choking. Rather safe than sorry. Sacrifice speed for $$$$$.

Ask Docman about the idle out of the channel (45 mins.)

Oh be quiet up there.......

And those molds are GONE!

How about taking the 25 mold and modify it for an O/B . Hang a bracket off the back and a single 300 Verado or Opti. Your probably not going to use thodse molds anymore anyway. I think the market exists for a large single O/B closed deck and you could call it a 25' or a 27'.
