Hey Strip,

Did you cut the skegs down any? Got my b-maxes monday. Missing a couple of bolts, dean is overnighting them for me. Looks like a good bit of polishing on the lowers, I have enough of that under the hatch, don't need anymore. Salt water will eat the polishing job up quickly. Will be in the water tomorrow, finally :evilb: Just finished installing strainers and flushes. What a pain in the a__!!

Rob, I was thinking the same thing. It doesn't have the lower cavitation plate like mine do.

It looks like a Imco plate. Also almost like the back of the new merc's Ace drive???

Also the bottom has some longer looking studds???

When I first saw the pic I thought it was a sport master lower or a shortie because of the cav. plate.

Must be a new design? Mine looks like this one.
