I haven’t posted in a while, and there hasn’t been much to look at as the rigging process has been a slow tedious process. First the port engine was hung and rigged while leaving the starboard engine off for ease or access. I can’t fathom the complexity of having to rig up to six of these bad boys that being installed on some boats and where to mount everything. Ending up mounting some of electronics/ interfaces on the inside cabin wall And creating a cabinet to house them as there isn’t enough space behind the dash. No photos of that as that’s still a work in progress.

Also finally received the marine mat snap-in flooring for the cabin and stern compartment. Between company closure during Covid and a mixup ( I received the 4mm stick down product when 9mm snap-in was specified), it took 6 months to get. Argh!!! I’ve also been working on some simple Superboat graphics that turned out not so simple and took a month to complete. I brought them with me to Superboat land but didn’t get a chance to install unfortunately.

Went to superboat today, here are some updates! The boat is back on the trailer!! But prior to, John weighed the boat. The rigged, dry weight was 4790 lbs. That was without the seats.

Inside looking out. Built a box to conceal all the enormous amount if electronics associated with the new motors. https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.off...55b3c4cbe.jpeg Checking fitment prior to hinge install https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.off...609c27dc4.jpeg Cranking away back and forth to bleed the steering |
Looks great! What is that fitting on the motors right above where the lowers bolt on?

Sweet ride...

That’s where you drain the oil

Very nice Gary. Going to be worth the wait. Nothing around like it.
