Waiting on lowers to come back from shop with #6 prop shafts. Ordering props from Hering. We decided on 17 X 35 X 18 degree rake. Got bored and started to tear dash apart. Sending off some templates to Steve at Innotech to do in carbon fiber. Will post pictures of completion of dash.

i was going to have skegs extended but for a 1000.00 a piece i will try it first since i have three drives on the water may work ok prop shaft is 2.5 above bottom on outers and 3.5 center trying 18 x34 x 18 rake outers and 17 x 36 x 18 rake center . maybe by the end of the month for sea trial.
