Default Finally almost done --20

This a 20' 1989 boat I bought from Charlie on this board.
It originally was powered by a 200 Evinrude FI(u)CHT now has a 2004 HPDI 200 Yamaha.
All new bottom paint,Fighting Lady yellow hull paint and white topside paint all the holes knicks and bruises in the glass have been fixed. T-top and leaning post painted with new cushions front and rear. New electronics basically everything has been gone thru since December.
I splashed her last week and saw 45 knots I foresee more speed in her future with some prop tweeks and motor height adjustment.
Looking forward to dolphin fishing Hatteras as she will be kept in Rodanthe starting next week!
I love my Seacraft this is my second one I should have never sold my 23!

I went to the auto paint store and bought rattle can aluminum primer I sanded it primed it and shot it black. I have always liked black accents on boats. Hot to touch but I think it looks good.
Thanks guys the boat is still a work in progress I want to have forward cushions made for my girl to lay out on the casting deck area and coming pads. I am also going to get a console and lean post cover made.
It goes to the graphics vinyl guy next for her name-- Cataztrophy

Beautiful boat I have the exact same setup without the tower.. However mine will get no where near 45 knots... Can I ask you what prop you are using and what rpms you are turning? I have the trim tabs all the way up but it still feels like the bow wants to dig at high speeds I can currently only get about 35 kts. Also curious to know if you have any performance numbers like mpg at cruise? Thank you in advance

Dmonk, you should be seeing a lot more speed than that. I touch 33 knots with a 2001 yamaha 115 2 stroke!
