Jason,

Trailer brakes and wheels won't make that puppy any faster.

It has been a new boat for longer than a week. It is winter. Gotta keep busy somehow.
Think of this step as a step to get the new boat.

What kind of dash and guages..Totally new layout or just upgraded? Not much room on the 29OL dash.

Cant wait to hear the rest.......Double secret means it takes 2 of the items when you have twins

I have some red & black carbon fiber/kevlar weave that I'm doing the dash & all associated panels in & the stupid in me is going to do the tread plate steps on my trailer the same way. They will be slick because they will be flat, but you aren't supposed to step on the trailer anyway. Aesthetics outweigh functionality in my book.
And, yes the double secret stuff will indeed be almost as fun as what I have for power now.
Like old man Jay (Never Enough) I'm getting older so I'm gonna slow down a bit.

Damn, the dump business must be good!! If your mind slowed down to the same speed as your boat you'd have lots more money saved!!!!!
