    Center pods help protect the Gear case , and can help with hop.

    With the right prop it would do that no problem there stable at slow speed if I remember correctly Johnny said his on plane 15-17 mph. I would just guess and say the wake for a wakeboard would be awful because of the cat design.

    Its still moving along at a snails pace but everything is coming out as I want so far. At the end of the day I will be happy and there will have been no corners cut to hurry the project. The motor is almost ready, the Porta bracket is done and waiting patiently, I have all of the rigging parts to complete everything and sea-dek will be the last step before we start to try and make it run. Hopefully I can afford to buy a prop when its time-

    Yes it is.

    The side panels, rear bulkhead, lower dash edge and gps brow will all be covered as well. We cut the rear seats down so that the same amount of headrest were exposed on all four "they got pretty short but are still comfortable". Fineline does a great job for those of us who are patient enough to go through the process. I definitely couldn't do it if it were my only boat and preventing me from being on the water.

    Interior just got finished. Mike and his guys at FineLine did a great job as usual. They are doing a lot of o.e.m. jobs so the one off stuff takes him longer to get put thru the system and can't take priority but the results are always great at the end.

    Porta Bracket, rigging, motor, sea-dek....I can finally see light at the end of the tunnel-

    It is now 1600 before interior (we added a lot of structure and paint to the boat). Interior should be around 220. The rear hatch is another 25, power steering, stereo, speakers, sub woofer, a couple of screens, Porta Bracket and pump, trim pump, fuel pumps, 6 filters, passengers and luggage. We should be able to get it up to 3500 and make Todd cringe....It will be a lot for a 300R to push. -It was never intended to be a drag racer but I will make sure it can keep up with traffic on the river runs that I enjoy.

    My STV weighed just under 900 bare before I rigged it and had all of the above mentioned it as well. The 300 on it pushed it okay and this one has a little more tunnel assist-
