Nice work!!! Looks great

Looks great! I still get a daily email from Boattrader.com advertising this boat for sale.

make an offer....

jdub your a animal! I cant believe you had it out already! It looks killer! How did it run? Were you happy with the size and power?

It never ends does it ?? Lol !!!

I'm with Russ, the boat looks Great Congrats to both of you !!!
& Yes how did it run ???

Well other then not being able to go over 3200rpm it was fine! My throttle cable adjustment was way off plus I could not trim my drive up. The throttle cable is no big deal, I new carb bracket and linkage is on the way so I can get full range of motion. But the drive trim I believe may be because my dumb a$$ never checked the pump for proper fluid or level after I hooked up the lines. It will trim up and down on the trailer and sitting in the water. Once on plane it will not trim up. I looked in the pump resevior and saw a strawberry milkshake! Water must have been mixed with the ATF for some time. I'm thinking the watered down ATF is not allowing the pump to build enough psi to lift the drive under pressure...what's your thoughts?

But even with the drive buried this thing is surprisingly very nimble. Has a bigger boat feel yet responds well to driver input. Crushed a couple tug boat waves with no problem!

came out real nice.
i'd still like to see the graphics gone.
and i think you need a steering wheel w/ more pop(like stainless spokes).
just my $0.02.

jdub, imho i think you nailed that interior, looks tough as nails.

Thanks Dan...that is exactly what I was aiming for, just a tough look.

Rob I hear you on the graphics. This winter they will either be gone or the colors changed and some refinement added.

But the wheel...it stays!
