It was a bit of a "struggle", but we got it fired today/Sunday...:cool Pics/Video to follow...

Lots of long days (and nights) to get to this point... Props go out to the Eliminator Crew, Mike from Cummins, Larry Smith, and others how helped "git'r'dun"....

As for Mercruiser/Smartcraft....

Great project..I like the staggers, and just the plain fact that you got both of those long diesels in there and staggered them.. I'll be at the show to check this boat out..Congrats..looks like an awesome project.

You know I rain on a lot of parades here about diesel boats, I try to say it as I know it.

BUT, this boat rocks, I wish you all the best, it's done like a diesel boat should be - very nice job!!!!

I still think the gearing is too low but testing will tell you that.

Again, I wish you the best - great effort, great looking boat - Good Luck!!
