Update got the fuel tank covers installed got the port side trimming systems bled mounted the port engine hatch. Ready to install the port engine just waiting for a couple of bitts at the anodizing and the rest of the trim solenoids so I can finish the trim systems.[ATTACH=CONFIG]557210[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]557211[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]557212[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]557213[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]557214[/ATTACH]

Were those tabs / k planes machined down or is that the original size?

They are original. Thats the size from all of the pictures I have and they came installed on the boat except for the hydrolic manifold we had to reproduce that from photos and the holes in the back of the boat.[ATTACH=CONFIG]557215[/ATTACH]

Finished up the trim for the drives and got all the drives mounted and the Latham tie bar system installed so I can finish bleeding the steering. Like too thank the guys at Latham for a great job on the tie bar as always.[ATTACH=CONFIG]557521[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]557522[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]557523[/ATTACH]

Finally got Dennis Jones to come over and finish up the lettering really getting close now just got a hole pile of pictures from when the boat was being rigged at the Gentry Shop in Torrance CA. Special thanks to Warren Robbins of Team Scarab Fame. We have always wondered why the boat sat so weird on the trailer come to find out someone had moved the boat back 25 inches to lighten the tongue weight. So now I have to figure out how to move the boat forward on the trailer before we install the last motor so this should be exciting stay tuned.LOL[ATTACH=CONFIG]558032[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]558033[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]558034[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]558035[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]558036[/ATTACH]
