Isn't maintenance much easier on a staggered boat?

We only build race boats or race boats for leisure use and although we're a little bit further away from you than the competition you wouldn't see many like it!

Here is the hull he needs..

Good question.

However with stock Mercruiser or Mercury High Performance engines oil dipsticks, oil and fuel filters, water pumpsetc. are all up front and user friendly.

If you want other engine options then maintainence is more of an issue. But really, what is at the back of the engine you need to get to?

I take more bimbos in bikinis in my cockpit first but I am just silly about that. :evilb:

Agree with Rik.
I have been onboard the boat in the BananaShark workshop, I left the feeling of really wanting one, and so did my wife, and we normally never agree on anything. Was very impressed knowledge of the team and the quality of the build. Should also be very fast with its biggest stepps in class.

Hey dumb azz Sunsations have a large integrated swim platform too! Ever seen one? So does that make the 32 really a 30? :angry-smiley-038:
