This thing done yet?
Jacking can be fun.Should be done soon. It’s in rigging. I am in no hurry, just wanna make desert storm
Interesting news.
None of the previous OB boats had a hydraulic adjustable jack plate.
Well they just told me that they will now add an adjustable jack plate to my boat. That will really help with overall performance. That makes me very happy.
Very looking forward to it
Jacking can be fun.
There are pros and con's to both just like anything.I heard that about the OB guys. I won’t lie, kinda looking forward to it
In all seriousness we were wondering why they didn’t run adjustable jack plates before?? Dunno??
I really like the seat and vent design, going to be nice.
I am really liking how the colors came out.
We went with black outboards to contrast the white boat. I think white OB would blend too much and would stick out too much. Instead we went with black contrast color which makes sense with the all blue transom.
We added a black stripe in the boat to blend the black OB. We will add a silver blue stripe to the cowl.
They selected black jack plate. We picked the silver hardware. Both blend well.
The lower on the OB is silver. That was a coincidence. Lol
Great job! Did they give you a choice on jackplates? Do you know the setback? I would assume they have this setup pretty dialed?
Awesome work!
Wow just a thing of beauty !!!
Lake test yet?
Perfect, hope it’s absolutely dialed. You definitely deserve it.Not me. They did a quick shakedown but that’s all.
I think they are planning to do a lake test this week.
The plan was to finish it this week and lake test it. Then EB will put it in the Desert Storm boat show.
I am planning to attend DS and pick up the boat after the street show. I will be on the lake Friday and Saturday. Hope to see everyone there for DS.
when I looked at your boat, it seems your steering wheel is a little thinner than most. Is that something you chose? I have no idea why that stuck out to me, but I kinda liked it.
I drooled on it earlier
Beautiful boat! Congratulations sir!
Maiden voyage. It was extremely crowded and rough yesterday so didn’t get to run it full speed.
But I am really happy with how quick it is so far.
Hopefully we get better water today
