Default Re: So, has anyone ever.....

The curse of all boat owners “I love my ride, But if it were just 3 feet longer.”
(that’s what She said)

Every one has caught that bug some worse than others.

I have thought of this idea a couple of times and also thought of making a full bracket that is like the Contenders and SeaVee stern which are about a 4 inch step up that goes from port to starboard all intergraded in to the hull. I kind like the idea but didn’t like the amount of work and beer it would take to complete the job. That would be a major project that could turn out bad so I passed on it.

I figure that if a Hermco bracket can’t do it then it’s time to move up 6 feet or more to keep the desire in check for a decade or so.

I have convinced myself that not only would I need more stern footage I would also need a bigger beamed boat to accomplish what I’m really looking for.
If I’m wrong please don’t correct me. I would rather live with my poor logic then spend the money to change the ride.

That first Make job is like what I was thinking about.

If you do it send lots of pictures so I will be totally jealous.
