    Appears to be a very well balanced rig.
    Looks like it’d be fun to drive.

ID:	479620 Took a lot of testing to get this setup. I had a lot of hours driving time in the boat and it was fun. This boat was very sensitive to setup and drive but worth it. Good times in that boat.

    An even better shot.

    Other than the upturned chines, it looks like a giant Desilva.

    My favorite boats to drive are ones that reward driver input.

    Wow..I love Scream & Fly and here we are in person. (My wife Carina & me today).. What I dont like is people hiding behind a fancy screen name and acting like they know everything.
    A straight person use his real name or close to.
    Merry Christmas.
