Tim, looks real sweet, nice, and good too.
Does the pilot house help to keep the snow off you?
So glad we don't have that problem in the south!
Cheers!

Strick - She splashed about 2 weeks ago . . . top speed with a old 200 merc is 33/34mph (running a 13P prop). I think I can squeeze a little more out of the boat with the combo before commercial bass season opens. I'll post some pics in the next few days.

Carla - We'll see the winter cod fishing has been very very good off RI!! A couple of 12 Volt Ceramic Heaters and some nice canvas and I will be fishing Nov - March.

Some more pics . . . with a 13P prop hit 6000rpm 35mph. 4500 26/27. Need to move up to a 15P and lower the engine one hole.
