Not really, 2 buckets up front. Just a basic bench in the rear, its alot lighter then the old set up. No radio, speakers or fancy ****.
we are adding support in the hull in many places, pump and k planes, stand off box, so that is add weight. in the end it will probably equal out. if its to light it will have even less stability at speed, i need some hull in the water. i will scale it when its rigged and trimmed. i est 3500 +-. it was advertised at 3200 lbs but that doesnt specify BBC SBC weight.
