Mine stick out 19"past my swim platform , I have never had blood in the water because of them I have kids and grand kids , herring and others make heavy prop bags you can put over the props if you are in a heavy traffic area.

My crack was in-between strakes...mid boat and ran 12' in length...no sign of impact anywhere on/near crack.... my 388 was a '01
My friend ( who I know has seen this thread but has not chimed in) basically had de-lamination in roughly same area- I hope he comes on and elaborates. I think he had a '99 or '00 boat

Hey Chris, mine was just like yours, the cracks were in the same area! Our Hustler was a '99. At least 4 Slingshots that were here on the west coast had de-lamination problems. All in the same area....

Wow! I know these boats are light maybe built a bit "thin" in spots? What does Hustler have to say about this?

Sounds like you might have already talked with Shawn about his Slingshot...

70K will buy the boat -- its worth that all day long.

Yeah if it's the Canada boat I talked to him some time ago. Detuned engines at about 650hp due to available fuel. Bmax drives
