I saw this boat in person at the Maine Boat Builders Show and it was both beautiful and done right. Very nicely done, congratulations.

Chris...what day were you there? I worked the booth on Friday and Sunday.

Sharp, Do you have pictures of the spalshwell area?, It looks like you raised the aft compartments very nicely

[Ed]

I will take pictures of the splashwell tomorrow. It is low enough to fully tilt up engine but tall enough to prevent your average splash over. The owner insisted on adding one. Thank you for the nice feedback.
