slightly over 2 years on this project Dave lol it would have been done sooner but not having a whole lot of $$ to work with slowed it down. couldn't have done it without knowing people in the industry, and working in the industry. Eugene, Bob, and our mechanics at our marina have been a tre mendous help with this. :salut:

Sure looks nice in the water Aaron  :salut:
I know that has to feel good after the rebuild journey - Congrats. :cheers:
You raised your sole 4 or 5" right? The scuppers are looking at a good level.

yeah, about 4-5 inches. even with both live wells full, and Wes and i standing on the transom, zero water came back up the scuppers. and running in a slight chop, there is zero hull slap, super quiet hull, coring the running surface paid off on that... cruises nice at 32mph turning 3500 rpm, motor sounds nice and healthy. and she's a rocket out of the hole!

lets see if y'all can guess what my WOT was... :thumright: and as others have said, over 40 mph its a scary ride :shock:

Congrats Aaron!!

She looks beautiful in the water!!

If you're getting 32mph at 3500.....I'm guessing you've got to be running 50 or damn close to it at 5500....

Next guess?

Winner gets a free fill-up at Aaron's Marina! :thumright:

:cheers:

Stance at rest looks good and the Mercury looks great, is it an EFI or carb?  Now you need to get her all dolled up and ready for the ball.

I say top end is 46 mph.
