killer! I've thought of it before. As well as the old boat ran as much fun as it was to drive fast..........., a CC would be an absolute blast.

Your Deck cap is in two pieces. Look at the bow and you will see where they join about 12" in. The CC is the same cap without the insert that makes up your foredeck.

go boy!
Highlifes would be a killer O/B project.
Every time I think I want an I/O (in this size range) I look at how close the motors are wedged in the bilge (and lost storage space) and that cures me. Let me know if I can help.

Twin, how about a 28ft sleek craft w/ twin 225 'rudes or old school triple force 125's? I found a hull... And twin 250's just aren't feasible. Thoughts? by the way, the black DEFINITELY brought out the white and the boat looks wicked. And that paint is sharp for the conditions you had to paint in!!!

High Life, post up pictures or email me @ [email protected]. Or you can PM me. 73 is older than I was thinking but I'll definitely look!!! This idea has all formed in the last 24hrs thanks to Twins :angry-smiley-038:

There's a clean 30' Velocity twin O/B down here in the teens $ as I recall. One of the best out of the box twin O/B's ever built IMO.
Totally depends on your wallet and or how much of a project you really want. If I had it to do again I'd probably find an older, virgin 25' Checkmate Convincor I/O (no splash well as the O/B versions had) and convert it to O/B's. You'd re-coop most of your initial investment when off loading all the iron.
