Looking good!  I bet that 115 pushes her better than you might initially think.  I would guess mid 30s top end, 25mph cruise.

VERY interested to see how that boat handles with a tunnel.

I've done some little stuff on the inside, just waiting to get the tower back from the powder coater. We launched the boat in my uncles pond to see how it sat and to find out where i need to put the battery.

Finally got everything running good so I had to take it on the water. The boat performs better than i expected. The pocket tunnel seems to work awesome. I didn't have a gps on it but it probably tops out right now around 30, but the prop is too big. The motors only turning up about 5000 rpm right now. I still have a few things thing to do before its totally done, but it felt great to run it.

I put a 13x15 stiletto prop on the boat and remembered to bring a handheld gps. The boat does 35 mph wide open and 27mph cruising at 4900 rpm. I don't have my tilt/trim switch in my tower yet so these numbers are while trimmed all the way down.
