Default project revolution

We finished doing a complete resto on this boat last spring. And we had a trouble free summer. And now its in pieces again. We regeled the bottom and blueprinted it, sent the motors out to be checked and new MSD, pulled the front two fuel tanks out, redone stringers, rebuild engine hatch and floor, lightened up cabin liner and reglassed it in, new dash and thro/shifters on the way. And Mike at fineline has the interior. Here some pics

Damn! If you ran it last year, why do you have to tear her apart?

how fast did you get her runnin last year? Do you plan to keep the two front tanks out? What all are you all doin to the bottom to blueprint? we finally ran ours two weeks ago, but the water was too cold + the intercoolers, so it wouldnt keep runnin...I thought you all already did the gauges n interior?lol Can't wait to see pics of her done...we need a vid of tht big sucker runnin

We will have it ready for summer. Best we got out of it last year was 78mph on gps. With all the work done we hope to be running in the mid 80s. Yes we have done the dash and int. but we are going with blue carbin fiber panels and monster gauges. The bottom I long boarded then we regeled and now long board one more time and finish sand. Also sharpened all the strakes up. So far we have lightened the boat up by 1250lbs.
