Hermco twin engine bracket 2,995.00 , recore transome 1,500.00 , livewell and cap 1,500.00 , between bracket mounting, derig and rerig motors, various hatches, misc hardware you can expect to spend over 8,000.00 and it will take about 2 months to finish

Took the boat out on a sea trial today, tested out the livewell, ran the boat with the livewell full she got up on plane quickly and no weight issues with the extra 35 gallons of water. I never thought the ride could improve over the great ride it already had. Boat handles much better at slower speeds much easier to dock.

VCSJupiter-What is your set-back on the bracket? It looks like Don set you up with the shortest setback which makes the weight distribution best. And, with those V-4's you already have the least stern weight for twins! Looks great. I was cruising through the Loxahatchee and intercoastal in Jupiter in the 18SF last weekend. Hope to see you in one of your boats next time...........
