Anyone just see this afternoon's SSTV? They pulled some sea drives off an older Pursuit and put on a twin Armstrong Bracket and a couple Rudes. Well, they kept going back to a small shot of them fishing on that Yellow Seabird. Did anyone see how far below deck that boat sat in the water? With a float chamber and a single + two fat guys, the water line looked 6 inches OVER the floor height

Last night they showed that episode here in Fl on Adelphia cable. I don't recall seeing the Yellow boat flashbacks [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

The one aired showed removing the OMC Seadrive and mounting the Armstrong double wide bracket for a pair of 175hp rudes. Also it included Armstrong's CEO showing their brackets since 1984. What impressed me was their new option of the lights for night fishing and diving which were mounted in the flotation tub at $500 [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

John ...The deck of the bracket was under water by 6" ?? [img]/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img]
I think (not that it matters) they used a Stainless marine bracket on the Seabird...

Anyone know the buoyancy #'s on the other brackets .... Stainless, Armstrong??
