Aaron Croswait built the majority of the boat along with Chris Walker from molds and jigs we provided but it will be labeled as a Tribute 37. The plan is to have Aaron provide the parts and the final assembly rigging and finishing will be done at the Tribute facility in Jupiter. First run we saw 80.5 but only turning about 5600 rpm's. Was told that those engines don't start creating their power until 6400 with the rev limiter at 7200. Completely wrong props on her now, 5 blade 30's. Should have another set to run this week. The boat is far from finished and it will have about 600lbs more weight fwd so the bow will come down about 5 1/2" and stern lift about 3". We are expecting low 90's once dialed in. She turns very well at high speed by tracking on the aft longitudinal steps.
