Greg, looks great. Keep the pictures coming. Kinda makes me wish I would go for a project boat.

Mean looking mill HP. You'll need clearance from the FAA when that prop starts turning.

No comment Huh. How about a 96 or 97 42' with trip hp500's ? Theres one in town here always kept inside and has no fading and is almost perfect. I htink he wants 125-135K Dont quote that but almost sure thats what he wants. The boat is truly nice. Greg

Man you remind me of myself!!! You are puttin a LOT of lovin into that thing!!!!

If you do not mind me making some suggestions on your sub boxes? Hope not cuz I am going to say it anyhow

First off PLEASE tell me with all the lovin you are giving this thing you are seeling that wood with epoxy or polyester? Second Plywood does not make a very good Sub enclosure. It will work and work well but if you want to take it to the next level try lining the inside of the box with MDF and EPOXYING it to the inside of the box you have The density will keep the power of the driver going FORWARD and not let the box flex. YES FLEX!!! The preasure on the inside of the sub can be UNREAL. We built a box the other day with a speaker we knew very little about, and the preasure was not perfectly equal and it blew the cone to a million little pits The other thing that the MDF will do is to creat a certain resinence that will be better then the plywood. I hope you do not mind my suggestions.

Anyhow the boat is going to look awsome and keep the pictures rolling.
