What kind of bracket?

Looks like the motor is high, could you run a 15in on that boat?

So before the paint work, how much was this project, boat, shipping ...

You should have waited with the paint job, I wanted to splash it,

Has anyone splashed one?

I had a 20" 300XS on my Argo, was never an issue and it was a runner. Sold it to Ward and he installed a 20" 300R, which he has had great performance and no issues. Would a 15" look better as well as be better wt distribution wise? Sure But isnt a necessity, and with the 300R isnt available.

This Twister is going to bring all the new 4 stroke technology along with a great exh sound, lots of torque, and plenty of speed. I am glad that there has been a decent amount of time with the history of the 300R and prop performance, that I wont need to be a guinea pig with what to run to make it a great all around performer. A shout out to Paul Z06man for sticking with me and helping me achieve my dream. After owning the Argo and having the most absolute fun and enjoyment I have ever had with any of my performance boats, the Twister adds more cockpit size for comfort and and passenger fun.

Best bang for buck a performance boater could hope for IMHO!

Will be interesting to see how Todd Ds creation measures up

I'll first run a 15" 300XS on his 24'6" design. we'll see how the #'s compare

What is the weight of these boats?

Mine will be white with blue trim.

**FUJIMO** · 06-18-2023, 05:16 PM

...question? how rough of water can the twister be confident in, at 70? thanks.

So I havent seen any pics yet of the interior installed yet. I am in NC at the time, Paul finished it up and had a trip he had to make so didnt get time to send them to me.
The boat is at Paul's house on his lift for his twister. I will be trailering it here at lake norman, and keep it garaged at home.
