Thx! I 'm running the 6 blade Herings and it's very stable up to 107ish - ran 104 in the Shootout (1 mile). Boat planes with zero slip and has great acceleration - and surprisingly no drive issues.

I think the handling difference in Phil's 120 boat are the NXT's and #6 props. I am still intrigued by his idea of Ilmors and Indy drives in a Glad.

The 39 sit-down would be a cool boat for sure.

Tom your interior looks great. I'm very impressed with the work Justin's guy did.

Wow man! Who did the work? Any more pics?

That's a commitment. Why'd you decide to do that? It looks killer, just wondering if its worth the lost room?

Very nice, Tom... Guess I just missed it at PBC. Justin was hooking up to her when I drove by W&W on the way home. Looks sharp!

Lost room? There was no room - with 5 people someone had to exit the cockpit just so the others could move. Plus there was no way out of the cockpit without stepping on the seats (there is no side step like a top gun) - so I decided to go to 4 seats to make it easy to exit the cockpit and incorporated a step into the center console at the dash to assist the climb onto the bow. Took the stereo out of the console, moved all the switches down, made the console step and recessed the stereo remote into face of the step. There are vented foot tubs that provide access to the stereo amps and provide the vents for the subs. The sidewall cubbies were enlarged and there is red LED lighting in the cubbies, side panels, under the steps, cup holders and foot wells.

Work was done by Waves and Wheels at LOTO - he is the local stereo guru and also does work for MTI - he (Justin Wagner) did the new Black Diamond MTI that was in the Miami show. They ventured into the interiors awhile back and I can't say enough about the quality of the work. The seat surfaces and light silver side panels are a newer marine grade fabric that looks like silk - it really shines when you see it in person.
