That sure is Pretty! I have No idea what mine looks like at the Moment.. Waiting for the Galss Guys to finish the new Gelcoat. Should have had it back yesterday but one of their clients with a 3 million Dollar Motor Home jumped over my piddly 4500 bucks so I have to wait until Tuesday! I was gonna tip'em a Bill if they had it done on time... Guess they'll just have to put their kids through college on the Motor Homes Dime! ;-)

It is an Australian hull built in Queensland called a Jenks Craft. I beleive and modified after popped from a mustang mould I think. but is very hard to find out info I dont know much and I own the thing!! I retrofitted the extension to cop the big merc's and it is running on stock 24' bravo's but really dont know how to optimise its performance as it can vary so much with conditions, slip % etc. with the lower pitch props its holeshot you need a seatbelt for but then she gets unstable and chinewalks at a much lower top speed. really not sure how to set her up. help advice from a smartarse would be appreciated

but mph is roughly 85 and loa is 28' right now

No I bought it out of Kentucky.. Lake Cumberland Marine screwed my brains out long story.. But in a nut shell when I looked at the boat it didnt have engines or drives, they rigged it with 454 mags that supposedly had 200hrs on them and bravo's, knowing that the stringers and transom were rotten never said anything to me about the rot.. used the boat twice and the engines were worn the f@#k out had to spend 5g's on rebuilds then come the next spring I noticed the port engine was about to fall off the stringers.. Called the SOB and he started yelling at me saying they had no idea the boat was like that..

Anyway thats when I restored it in 2004 new transom, stringers, upholstery, paint and graphics and I custom built the fairing.. 2006 I did the Imco boxes and the swim platform and this year after a 4yr battle with my motors its running again with new 502's with 500hp.. I gotta pull all the wiring out of it now it's butched to hell and back my gauges jump around more than my kids do!!! prolly be a winter project..
