The boat arrived at Fineline today..we are waiting for Mike's magic right now..if you noticed the buckets seats in his 24 Skater, our Motion is getting blessed with the same newly designed bucket seats!!!!

Mike does good work, do you have any pics of the paint finished?

no..but we put "real flames" in a few spots...

Nice...

Getting closer............Fineline is close to being done with the interior. Going down in a couple weeks to pick her up.

looking good, thanks for the updated pics.... If you get any more keep them comming.

More pics coming. Boat runs amazing!! These are from the 1000 Islands run a member on another site snapped.

Are you guys interested in a run out to Block on Sunday?

Gregg (29' Fountain) and I (26' Velocity) are launching at 10am in Chester then meeting up with Mike (30' Zuperboat) in Greenport or Orient Point around noon.
After we meet up with Mike, we're running out to Block and returning on Monday.

shoot me a PM if interested...

Dan/Ken,

I agree.....boat looks SWEET!!!!! Love the paint and tan interior. See ya on the water. :drink:

Dan.

Boat looks awesome...Great job with the interior...

Selling already?

Yep.....everything is always for sale. How is yours coming along? Motors looked great in the pics you posted!

About to relocate the motors backward about a foot then it will be perfect. Your upholstery looks great!

Thank You! Mike at FineLine did an excellent job and would reconmend him to anyone! If I may ask, why are you moving the motors back?

Motors are on like a 34 inch shaft. CG is too far forward and it cant quit porpoising. Larry said should be at 18 to 22. Others said this boat ran well but I dont see how. I can only keep it flat with lots of negative trim (20 degrees!). Let it air out any (18 degrees negative?) and it starts porpoising bad. I cant let it eat at all!

Ken the boat looks killer, love the interior..

lowblu what do you make of this.? You know this boat some.

I would check props before changing things around, this boat was dialed in with different props and I never personally ran the boat. Scott from Intense rigged the boat and from what I have heard the boat ran hard back then. Keep in mind Motions "becuase of their not so tall tunnel" tend to ride better going against the wind with a little chop. Being that you have wet sixes, I would tend to believe that the motors would have to be a little foward to balance the weight of the drives and gimble "which weigh alot", but again I am not sure.That is one of the main reasons why when my friend built mine, he raised the tunnel up a foot in the front straight back with no belly. Here's a pic so that you can see what Motion did.. http://www.offshoreonly.com/forums/m...om-what-2.html
this helped getting on plane and airing out....

The other #6 boats hav an 18 to 22 inch shaft. They rigged this boat way farther ahead than that. I have run 5 blades and 4s. I have run into the wind and chop, on flat water, with a tail wind, you name it. It simply cant stay flat without alot of negative trim. I had Brad Schoenwald in the boat too. I am confident in Larry on this one. I'm gonna go ahead and move the motors. "Lube Jobs" and others are running really well with the motor on an 18 inch shaft. I'll let you guys know how it turns out.

I didn't know you had done all those test, then I would deff. move the motors back...

It won't be long now.....

If I could just remember where the yellow wire goes:evilb:

looking good...

My Red Motion is for sale and just lowered the price to 110k!! Come and get it!!

Someone make me an offer on this boat! It's ready to go. May have a new boat lined up but this one has to sell first! Can't have three of these things!

Prob a big Vee for the room again. You can't beat the ride and handling of a cat though so you never know!:D
