Thanks guys it is a blast to drive. A real torque monster.

To answer some questions.

Running a Mirage + 21 3 blade, thanks to blue heron (Dave W)

Gilly the stroker is smooth and really quiet. On the hole shot motor down and cavitation plate parallel to the hull (trim down, then hit the button up for a split second). No tabs.

Strick, can't push to hard in the turn or she will break the prop loose. So far I have found out is the throttle back and then gently apply power when coming out. Windshield will be coming just don't know when or what. Yes I have the old frame, but most likely will not use it.

Denny the balance seems to be there and the boat loves to run with no trim tabs and with the motor trimmed down. No sound absorption material. I had it out the other day on a flood tide with chop and 2-3 foot rollers coming in the pass. Lowered the trim tabs and drove through it at 25 with not one pound and no water over the side. It is a dry running hull.

Ken, in the hot rod world we called cars like this a Rat Rod...So I guess I have a Rat Boat (it will get painted)

Great videos! She looks so smooth. Congratulations on the successful splash. Have you locked in on a color choice, yet?

I want to see a video with some swells or even a little chop it doesnt do the hull justice running on a pond

No movie yet...however I did take it out the other day for more testing

Went through Stump Pass on a flood tide, and the rollers where approx. 2-3 range, nicely spaced. Speed was approx. 30 mph and boy was I having fun...

Started to get air and then the prop starting to break the surface...the landings where absolutely the softest I have ever had on a boat this size. No bang just whoosh and a very dry cockpit.

So I kept doing this for awhile until the was off my face.

The smile should never go away !!!!
Looking good in the water and out ...
If I were to swap our 21 for yours ... Would you notice?
Maybe NoBones had the right thought, you might need some camouflage paint on her ............
Reminds me .... Whats your color choice this week? Or what is the Mrs choice?
