I understand that this boat was not finished before it left for the show. Obviously, there is still some rigging and finish work left to do.

Sharkey,

By any chance did you get a peak of the bottom or any shots?? They have to run two water pickups for the 1075 Mercs that are in her. The forward pickup looked like it was installed by a bunch of Jerry's Kids. I never expected to see that poor of craftsmanship on this boat being it was from Fountain. Hopefully they will find a much neater way of doing it.

There was an additional pickup at the transom. The only shots of the bottom I have I already posted above...
I didn't bother with the bottom towards the transom because it was blocked by a curtain and the boat stand.

I bet Vandyo21 will disagree with you on the Cig

That is some of the worst workmanship ever. Not that it matters, but the pickup isn't even centered. Oh, nice pics of the bottom as well. Thanks!
