There was a younger guy ( heavy set ) running around on TRL a few years back in one of these, he was from TX, 525 boat, tied up to my dock, wonder if its the same boat.

I think I remember Seeley saying it was out by him at one point in time.

KWright 04-20-2018 05:07 PM

Josh Hollis was who I got it from. From the Huston area.

Back from sunny Florida with trailer. Myco did a great job. Just waiting on new rims and tires to complete.

Crude Intentions 04-25-2018 05:24 AM

Looks great. When do you plan to have it together?

1 MAIDEN AMERICA 04-25-2018 09:49 AM

Looks like the shop is bigger than the house and more concrete than grass. PERFECT!!!
Can't wait to see the heads.

KWright 04-25-2018 10:34 AM

Hoping to go to CMI in 4-6 weeks for tailpipes, then to R3 for final dial in. But we all know how well timelines work out.

KWright 04-25-2018 10:39 AM

Yes shopis bigger, and lots of driveway and parking lot. The Hazzard of having a trucking company. Heads should be back early next week from RFD, I'll post picks when they get here.

I'm often impressed by many of the trailers under go fast boats in the U.S. You guys really make them look as good as the boat, something I've never seen before. This particular one is absolutely no exception!

New driveshaft in. In process of making limiting spacers for trim Rams, so drives don't hit deck.

This is awesome, keep posting. Makes me want another project, and then immediately reminds me how painstaking and thankless the process is (but so worth it in the end).

Fountain 42 poker run, top 5 on my ultimate go-fast boat list (coming from a Cig guy) they are awesome boats/hulls.
