Prime is so ruthlessly bad ass on everyone of their builds.. I don't think I could ever do shit like that.

That is first class! The C500 bracing looks trick, no wobble there.

Your boat re-rig has turned out very nice, you must be going crazy being so close to getting it back and on the water after two years, congrats. I like the looks of prop shaft coupler you used, I am used to seeing the 6 bolt pinch style, it is good to see something different. Do you know if the prop shaft is drilled/threaded in the end with a bolt/washer type setup so it can't come out or is it just a set screw or two against the outside of the shaft.

The C500 doesn't use the split coupler. My C500 is set up with a bolt in the end of the prop shaft. That's really the best and safest way to set them up. You don't want the prop shaft pulling out, don't ask me how I know:grumble:. I'm sure Prime set it up that way.
