Ya I ran it for one test run and love the boat I can see thru the windshield with no distortion of any kind. It is like sitting in the cocpit of a "LAMBO" all the controls are perfect!!! I hope Bob does this type of deck to the 30 Daytona. I think that will be a great boat to.

I ran the boat at 4000 feet elev. and the boat ran 89mph with 4 people in the boat and full of gas. I thought that was good for 4000 feet. The boat should run in the low 100's at sea level. Who wants to be the lucky owner of this bad ass boat so I can build one with a couple of 1000's.

Also I pm you with a cure on your prop setup, give me a call.

Thank you Preston for the windshield compliments it was a great project for Aero Marine. Bob and his team (Johnny, Tony, Jake, Fere) were very detailed with designing the look and feel of their windshield application. They would not settle for anything but the absolute best and did not half-step with the tooling process or take short cuts to curtail expenses.

I am just waiting to see what Bob wants to do next because I can almost bet he is already planning his next boat!

That is a break in the windshield. There is a piece that joins them together that was not installed yet. Here is a pic with it installed.
