Default First Nor-Tech 390 with trip Merc 350's

We've done the 350 Yamahas but this is the first Mercury 350 powered 390 CC for us.
Pretty snappy.
We've only been able to run it on Fresh flat water and 95 degree FL humid summer.
I think it might have another mile or 2 in it on some choppy salt water and a little cooler air temp.

This is a foward cuddy boat with air and gen too. It also has a side dive door.

Looking good! I like these better every time I see them. The CC's seem to be a practical day boat and you can load them up with people for poker runs.

80 should be no problem in a salty chop. Beautiful boat.

Beautiful boat and great numbers. Any downside to the 350's besides price? Surprised no one else has built with them yet. Seems like the perfect package.

waranties 300 = 5 yr, 350=1 year also the 350's have to run 93 octane which is very hard to find on the water otherwise i woould have put 350's on mine. o yea the 350's i believe are a 8 grand upcharge.
