    SCHWEEET!!
    Gel work is fanominal!
    I'd rather be competitive w/junk I built in my garage than win w/stuff I bought.


    I refuse to allow common sense to interfere w/my boat buying decisions.

    Kevin you are welcome, it looks better in person. MODVP22 I worked all day just on the stereo install yesterday and its still not all in, 22 wires just to the 1000 watt booster, then the auto battery switch over for charging and a manual version to prevent that amp from stranding MR Kraft or should I say MRS Kraft.

    Question

    Al,
    Curiousity question: How much set-back are you guys going to try on the new 22' boat? How much did you guys use on your other old style 22' boats? I know our Mirage Trinity, which is just a little deeper, wider and longer (not by much) requires a significant amount of set back, we use a totak of 18 inches (also seen only 14 inches). Just curious.

    Again, that boat looks great.

    22 actually if you do not count your built in steps ours is longer, is 96 inches wide and the new model is 5 inches deeper than the old. The botton with a v8 slowed down over 5 inches back, this one is at 6 as the deck is longer and the boat is under 1000 pounds bare, it is a carbon/kevlar hybrid lay up.

    Al,
    Yes you're right, those swim steps are big, I never really thought much about how much longer they make the boat. Any idea what Kevin's new boat weighs? Again, great job, Gel looks really nice from the pics that Kevin sent me (as have all the Stokers I've seen). Got that stereo thumpin' out in the shop yet?
