No just a standard square flat dash, we moved the steering to the port and redid the entire layout for the more fluid look. The center portion was setup to be a step up and over the dash to the bow. If we did it again we'd bring the hoods over the pods a little farther back and probably make the center portion a little bigger to put in a flat screen instead of the gauges. That was actually the first time we'd worked with carbon fiber, we were pretty happy with how it turned out.

I can't seem to visualize this.

That's the best picture I can find ATM, that was when we were cutting out some of the extra race bracing to make it more comfortable but you can see the original dash as well. The boat was an ex race boat, like so many were, and was apparently rigged with quads at one time before my buddy had it. That must have been one kick a$$ ride.

I have the 32 Spectre for sale in the classifieds. It has been a great boat and a lot of fun. We have 340 hours of trouble free boating. Mine was built in Jay's factory before frishini moved everything to the east coast. I have had zero issues. I don't think we will ever go back to a V bottom. I would like to try an i/o boat. If I have to start replacing drives and putting a ton of money into an i/o I'm sure I will go back to a cat o/b.

What's your top end on that boat?

TM you do have a beautiful boat, for others it was actually him that helped me get the setup right on mine. There is definitely a difference in a boat Jay was involved with and a Frisini only one. If yours is still available when I'm ready I'll be giving you a call. If I recall correctly yours will run 103 pretty much everyday and on a good day will be in the 105 range right.

An example of what we did to the other 32
Dash

Start of fastback

After Fastback

A Spectre is about the only thing I wouldn't cut up if I get it, and to be honest I don't know that I wouldn't flat deck a Spectre just probalby not for a year or two on that. All the others just don't have the interior style that I like but are such SOLID platforms to start with. I may VERY well end up with another Spectre who knows just like to keep the options open, get more information on pros and cons of each, and play with ideas unitl the time comes.
