Stripes on the floor too,stripes on the jet intake , halon engine fogger,etc etc some pretty cool features for a boat with "seemingly" no history (no one remembers or recognizes it ! To our knowledge the boat may have never seen water prior to our getting it . Clearly the guy had a lot of time on his hands?
Being as we (JBP) are now doing what we belive is the original "set up" curing the porpoise has been a "trial" But were getting there . First trip out the wife said "this is embarassing !!":eek: the boat littlerly could not be driven past initail plane Tom
