We're getting there! Had an initial sea trial on Friday. Everything went well, however, one motor was 300 rpm behind the other. They're thinking that it's just a prop issue, we'll see. I'm keeping my fingers crossed. Apparently, they just took a couple of Mirage props off the shelf to test it. One was a newer one and the other was an older version.

Looks great! Couple questions.
Whats w/ your rear bench? Did you do something special to it? Mine is all one piece, but your seat back looks like its separate.
Did you have the gunwale trim done as a single piece instead of two pieces? I was thinking bout doing that when i get to the cockpit. Looks much cleaner.

Honestly, I think that the upholsterer is sorry that he committed to doing it.

Yes, the side panels are each a single piece on either side.
