Default Re-rig on the 29

Well I finally pulled the trigger. I tore my boat apart.

I'm converting from TRS to XR's with box's(Look out Zane, I'll be asking you a million ?'s)
Motors are going to be stroked 454s up to 496's. Naturally aspirated, carburated.

I got an complete interior new, from Fountain, to go back in.

With the bow railing off she looks really sleek so I think we'll opt for just a low-profile center rail and pop ups. Should look a whole lot cleaner.

The windshield is off and it looks like we'll fit a pair of f16 canopies on her. It'll take some glassing but they look like they'll work. I'm leaving them as an option just in case.

The panel is going to be replaced with a Monster panel. Should finish off real nice.

I'll start posting pics as the work progresses. Should be interesting!

Motors are already done. Going to pick them up tonight. I'll start dressing those so I'll have pics soon. Nothing to take pics of yet except for a bunch of parts.

Geez this has been on hold for too many months. Well it's all finally coming together. I pulled yet another all-nighter last night to get the motors in.
