Nice job! I can't wait to see the numbers you get from that hull. That boat should last you a long time now.

Hey, just wondering what kind of speeds did you get with this boat!? I'm trying to find alternative boats for my next one, always loved the older Baja and Checkmates, aside from the Hydrostreams, Lasers, STV and then all of the super cool smaller boats like the Biel Promise and other mini's etc etc..
