Ok then I ask WOTW2E. There are no other additional options in the engine compartment I just have the motors no gen or fresh water(that is under the seat). Just not sure where I can bolt them to. Not sure if you have them in your boat or not. Just dont want to drill into something and cause a problem. Thanks. Also did you get a chance to get the info on the hatch mirror.

These are in Dock Holiday's boat. They had some manufacturing issues with them but this is the correct configuration. A right and left version with a U configuration for the outlet and inlet. The top of the center stringer of the 30 fiberglass liner has an area that is a couple inches tall that is near vertical. Use some heavy #14 lags, predrill and thoroughly seal the threads. There is some wood backing and thick fiberglass in that area. It will hold no problem. You'll have to play with the seacock and fittings configuration to get the hoses neatly around the engine mount bracket and the engine cradle but it can be done. Seastrainers are required on the 600s and we put some in the 30s. I had pictures but they are now on SR or Faja's server.

I have looked through all my "stuff" to no avail. I remember holding onto the computer print out with the vender name, part number, cost, etc. for the mirror material when I was cleaning off my desk on the last days. I must not have kept it. The good news is that I do have some small scrap pieces. I can send you a small piece and you can see what you can find out in your area. PM me over your address and I'll mail out a piece.
It is a flexible sort of plex material with a mirror coating on the back side. It can only be used on flat surfaces, otherwise it looks like a fun house mirror. It is difficult to cut as well. I used a vertical band saw with a very fine TPI blade. I used a couple layers of masking tape on both sides to straddle the cut. Afterwards the edges can be smoothed and blended with a fine grit DA sander. The results are very pleasing as you saw in the photos.

I liked the boat but didnt like the theme as I am from a little farther north but dont like the block "M" either.
When I get back into town mid mar I will see what pics I have and post. Nothing fancy, all stock but still looks good.
