How can a 9.9 equal fun and fast? LOL

Maybe you should spell out your real intentions, and let the crew get over the shell shock that you laid on them...ha ha

..."...augmenting a bothersome unpopular layout with the goal of slight improvement..."???

...me-thinks someone is pulling of our leg...
If the boat's in Sarasota, maybe I'll send my brother over to check it out.

I can see it, why don't you just fab up a low profile windshield that follows the line of the back gunwale as it comes forward.

That would preserve the integrity of the classic hull and give you the "donzi" lines you are looking for.

You get the idea.....

Nova top, Moesly bottom... ok with that. Just changing the windshield a bit, maybe seating -- not like your gonna find a Sceptre 20 windshield on CL or the flea market... get a light-weight 200 hp 2.4 L Bridgeport and go surprise somebody with your new sleeper... sounds like a fun twist... oh, and get a life insurance policy. Enjoy
