Post more pics of the Mini Hawk if you have them. Whats the story on those boats? Who built them?

Built by Hi Tech marine in the 80s. Mine was owned by Betty. they had races for Cougar Cubs and Mini Hawks at all the big events back then. It runs right around 45 with a Bblades prop, 6 inch setback/trim and a 25 merc.

Just finished a restoration on this 13ft Paradise. I put a 225 Mercury Promax on it. STUPID FAST!

Wildman,

Beautiful work on that Paradise ! It floats really well with that motor too!

How does she feel with having the lower unit so low in the water ? I used to run a 20 inch inline 4 cyl on the Bullet and when too low the boat was reckless at certain speeds. I eventually ran the nose cone almost even with the pad and was much better handling.

I just got my last boat back this weekend:
