Dunlop says trust your tires, Werner says "trust your ladder" LOL....
The first one is my LCB, the second one is my brothers 24 skater, we are looking to try a 32 next if anyone wants to volunteer their boat-

I am assuming it is used as a support to keep hull from swinging around while you work on it?

It supported the front of the boat with rear on chainfalls to the transom. After the running surface was sprayed, we added safety blocks. I am guessing that it was supporting around 700lbs. Like I said, tuff old ladder. I am the insurance company...

We have a documented 400+ hours in it so far. It only gets worked on when I have time and money "so not that often". I will get pics as it get closer, Doug will hopefully be putting some of his paint talents to it within the next week, I need to get seat buckets so that I can glass the mounts into the floor and get them to Fineline, Nick is assembling my power head, Scott is building my bracket, I just picked up my shortened clamp assembly from Chaz, and Quinton has the new trailer ready for me to pick up so I guess its getting somewhat close. Final assy. will be with Randy for wiring the screen, gauges, carpet, and final rigging.
17 montauk that is for my dad next, then the 18 outrage with the jet pack, then the 18 skater for my boy, my 24 skater is also getting close, and I will be doing my DW 28 at some point--see why I don't have time or money LOL...
I am working on my stuff in one of Scott's buildings-

Rename this thing a PCB now. Amazing redo going on with it. Serious looking water pick up too. Non-adjustable? Are you getting a shorty Porta like the Shadow Pirate's and what was the power going on it? 3rd degree session right?

The bottom it looks great what is the boat a padded tunnel ? Sorry if this is a stupid question but it really is cool looking. thanks Rick

Rick, that drop down in the tunnel doesn't do much like a true center pod as far as protecting the gear case but it adds a lot of structural strength to the tunnel. There was one built without the center piece and it runs very well.
Midlyf, it will have a short Porta Bracket yes. If the water pick up isn't enough then I will grind a small ramp in front of it but it should be good. The motor will either be a 15" stroker 300X or a 200 optimax "still trying to decide LOL"
