No problem, always liked the setup and design of that 368. Good luck on the sale.

The bottom of this boat has major problems. I was the first (and only) boat that they tried to build using post cured epoxy. The results were disasterous...the boat spent most of its time behind the NorTech shop having holes drilled into the bottom so water could drain, then getting epoxy injected tnto it to "glue" it back together.

They must have fixed it then, it works great for me. Oh , and what kind of boat do you have Mr. Wizard?

Personally , I don't own a boat....but you can't discount the fact that I worked at the Nortech factory while "your boat " was being built, and also when it was back for the many repairs. Does the boat still have the big aluminum plate glued and screwed to the underside rear of the tunnel ?? Gee .... now how would I know about that.:eek:
There's a reason Bill Pyburn didn't keep that boat. You should look into that "Mr Wizzard":lolhit:

That's why it is called a repair, You fix it, and then it is repaired. Outerlimits, Skater, Mystic and yes Nortech ALL have to change bottoms around on new prototypes. NO, My boat does NOT have an aluminum plate on the bottom. And yes, I personally talked to Bill before I bought the boat.
