[QUOTE="bigredxlt, post: 359026, member: 13419"] Finally made some decent progress. Got the boat painted, front deck cut, console cut and mounted up, steering and throttle/shift cable run. Finally got her on the water for a few runs. Ran well but the decking added a noticeable amount of weight. Also concerned that I have moved too much weight forward in the boat. The balance seems to be dead center of the boat as opposed to slightly back. The float pods in the back probably contribute to that. Bad news: Looks like I spun the prop pretty good. So I'm going to need a new one. Any suggestions? [/QUOTE]
