Ok, one question...the steps are wayyy different than anything I have seen or driven. What's the thought behind the staggered smaller steps???

Enlighten the Moose!

I find it interesting how the second lifting strake continues across to become the notched transom. Very clean detail.

The hull floated until the transom was cut out for the drives. Something about big holes...they make the boat sink.

SunseekerNY - Hey, thanks for the compliments on the hotel. We do our best to keep people happy. I believe that the races scheduled in OC for June have been moved to Septmeber. I don't think that it is set in stone, but that was the last I had heard. As far as running here from the Annapolis area, you may want to ask some others on this board that have done some distance trips in the area. Post a message and I am sure that there are people here that can tell you all of the details as I am not very familiar with the waters North and West of here. Now as far as the local coastal bays go, I can give you all of the details that you would like!

As previously mentioned, the 39 Kryptonite will be making it's debut VERY soon...

I saw the boat last week and Kirk was finishing up the throttles and getting ready to throw some props on her...

Word from the factory is the boat ran 90mph right out fo the box with a set of stock 32" props!

I'm supposed to get pics later today, so I'll post 'em for ya'll

Cord,

I like the strake, notched transom detail also. By the way thats exactly how Fountain does it. My 27 is exactly the same. Seems to work well for Fountain. This is going to be a hell of a boat!
