WOW congrats to you and the team at Boat Customs, they really knocked that thing out quicker than I expected. Can't wait to see the completed pictures and hear if there's a difference in how it runs.

Sorry guys but the final push to finish and then drive 13 hours home was brutal. No time for photos and the weather did not cooperate for pulling the boat out to get photos. So after driving 12 hour and 45 minutes in driving rain I have a nasty wet boat. I'll try to get her cleaned up and some photos out this week. Right now I need some sleep!!

Skate that would have made me cringe all the way home with a brand new boat. Glad you made it. Look forward to the pics, congrats! Reading all the 30'ish outboard builds have me convinced it will be my next boat.

Finally the boats to the right and left can get some love.

Can't wait to see it on the water!

Well as with anything I have a real job too and the clinic took priority this week. I plan to try to get to the water this weekend for a shake down run. The electronic switching system and stereo are working flawlessly. Some issues with heads up display requiring new cables and I also have to configure the new vessel views. I'll try to get photos up as well. Jason is also doing an update article for SOTW soon. After that I'll post all the build photos I have as well. Have a fun safe weekend Skater Brothers!

Here is cockpit after installation of carbon fiber knee kick upholstery around the dash.

You suck brother! It looks REALLY nice Sam. Love the seat backs! If I would change one thing with all the bling and bad a$$ look is a steering wheel upgrade!! JMO always love to spend other peoples money!
Great job
