I hear that!!!

It also helped that the last two project boats I completed were without having kids!!

Hatch is done! I'll reinstall the hardware and put it back on the boat tomorrow.

Man thats so true and its the really hard part...Your almost there and its so tempting to slack up, start cheeseballing and cut corners just to get it it finished.

First speed test was 73mph which is a 10mph gain.

Great job man!
Those are definitely iconic boats.

Thanks. The results so far have definitely made the work rewarding.

Still a few props to test. ;-)

Very cool

Looking awesome man. All you have to do now is sell me that SS drive for my Powerplay and do the Bravo conversion. Then you can go back to never thinking twice about throwing the hammer down! :-)
