    It's actually my fishing partners boat. I helped out a little over the winter remodeling. We think it turned out pretty neat!

    My goodness! That is one awesome looking boat, definitely one of a kind. Lots of skills and effort to make this happen.


    Don't feel bad. A lot of boats are slow.

    Oh, ......is that all...... at first look I thought is was hard to do.
    .
    .
    Seriously, that is absolutely incredible. I'm curious, what did the modification do to the handling / speed?

    Helped the handling, didn't really effect the speed
