And one more. . .
It's hard to see, but I like the way the asymetrical decal on the top of the sponson came out.

Thanks, guys! It was a lot of work.
The steering wheel was an e-bay special that my wife chose.
The graphics were done by a local guy, Geaux Graphics, who is just getting started. I simply can't describe how happy I am with the way they came out and the customer service I received. We were going to go with some elaborate patterns, but he came over and put on solid white just to gauge the size and it looked great so that's what we went with.

Yeah, what kind of numbers?
You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift. You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong. You cannot help the wage earner by pulling down the wage payer. You cannot further the brotherhood of man by encouraging class hatred. You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich. You cannot keep out of trouble by spending more than you earn.

The engines were a challenge. I had to get a pair of custom lower units built because Yamaha apparently never made a 20" counter-rotating version. BTW, they are HT Stage 2's, with cut heads, shortened tuners, solid mounts, and CF reeds.
As for numbers, 50 mph so far. I have a lot left to do before trying it out. For starters, I had never even ridden in a cat before, so I have to learn how to drive it.
I have 30" Bravo 1's on it, which should be on the limiters in the low 90's. Even with 36's, it will be rev limited to 110.
