I would change the TV set up. I am sure they are putting in flat or plasma's so I would include one in the berth. I also try and make a hanging closet on one side bigger towards the berth for jackets and sweatshirts.

Make sure you take pics of whats going on.

Spiker, Congrats on your new boat. I have looked at a lot of boats and have yet to find anything else I would choose. They have done a very good job in progressing the boat over the years to take care of customer input issues. However, there are just a couple of things I'll change next go round: 1. I would like the gen to be able to run while under mild speeds. Additionally, I would like the A/C to run also. I think this could be handled with moving the water pick ups to the rear of boat with thru transom type pick up. The step hull prevents them from running at even slow speed due to water aeration. 2. I would like my depth indicator to operate while running. Step hull here also affects this. But I think mounting the transducer right in the center of the hull might fix this. 3. We do some night running. The running lights are mounted at the helm. That leaves a lot of the front of the boat with no running lights. I would move them forward if it was me. Would also move the center mount anchor light to the rear of the boat. BTW, I love my bow thruster. Very helpful in windy conditions with tall boat. Also, the electric/hydraulic brakes on trailer are my preference over surge brakes. Love our boat, Tommy

We tried putting our depth finder pickup in several different areas, and it didn't pick up past 10mph in any spots. just fyi to save you some time down the road. Maybe a different brand would be in order... Who knows, I'm no depth finder expert though. Maybe someone will chime in.

Maybe a genny exchanger flushout fitting beside the engne flushouts on the swim platform. My genny water pickup on bottom is always on the trailer bunk. Maybe move the pickup on the build. Also more bunks on trailer for support and help with lining boat up on trailer. Its a pain on the steeper ramps around here.

Powerboat mag tested one that had the head to port. Most cabin boats have it to starboard so the back of the helm can be accessed.

Hey Mike, how was the trip down?

Greay suggestions. I'm sure if you spoke to Bob he would do everything in his power to get it done. Great guy! Always looking to improve his boats and listens to the clients (Black Thunder family)

Sorry for the delay in responding, with the cold weather we have been busy.

The trip went well, we talked and went over a lot of information, looked through a few boats that they were upgrading, a hull in its infancy, and a deck just out of the mold. Bob and Roger are a good team and very knowledgable about what they can or cannot do. So far ieverything we have talked about and asked about changing has been answered either that day or the next. Usually he is waiting on me for the information he needs to research.

We are asking to do a few things they have not done in the past and in regards to the engine compartment and we are working through them as we speak.

When we have a final plan of attack I will lay it out for you.

The engines are not done yet as we are waiting on innercoolers, and a few odds and ends, should be ready to dyno by the end of February.

How do you attach pictures?
