I joined Facebook many years ago to check up on someone. It worked, she became my 'ex'.
Now I use Facebook occasionally to check up on boats.........

So I guess the cat’s out of the bag. I’m doing another black/white boat!

Sweet build. I'm looking/dreaming of something very similar with twin outboards. Do any of you previous owners recall if the height of Y2K boat on trailer would clear a 7ft height garage door?

no it won’t. My oldY2K sat quite low on a rolls axel bunk trailer. And I believe it was taller.

Congrats on the new build. I had a Thoroughbred with twin 260s' on a Porta-bracket many moons ago. Twins will generally always get you home. Subscribed.

Thank you bulletbob. Spoke with John to give Rick of my phone number perhaps I can coerce him into posting the process. JC still uses a flip phone

Well I stopped by Superboat Today! Saw JC, Rick and helper Max. John jr stopped by with his bud Mike Demino a boat rigger. Not untill I asked his last name did I realize he is the son of John Demino aka “Lightspeed” who helped rig my prior two Superboats. So a big shout out to Lightspeed down in Fla!!
Back to the build... The deck has been sprayed and glassed! Rick was laying down the Divincel 305 high density coring for the deck when I arrived. This build is along the same lines as my last build, lightweight race layup, though this time around. as I mentioned, coosa board (already on hand)will be used instead of wood in Too Superstitious’ construction!!! Rick did say he had some pictures he’d forward when he has a chance.
