[3rdday]

captbone,

Thank you for your input and valuable insight and experience..
I hope it works ok, like I said the 300 v8 will be for experimenting and short term, if it does well i know the etec 300 will. In any case it wont be a big deal to reset for twins.
Im going to be adding knees to the stringers and transom and a longitudinal beam across the transom. I re cored the transom last year with composite, eglass biax and epoxy......
Its easy work as long as its not in the dead of summer- my only complaint is grinding glass in the summer.

EDIT+=Sorry for the thumbs down at the top of the post - meant for it to go at the end of"grinding glass in the summer"
