Congrats on your new boat.
I have a b26 with twin 470'S with alpha 1 mercruiser legs, the counter rotation is the port leg.
I was sceptical about the 470's but I have found them great runners.
There are still parts avalable and a rebuilt long block can be purchased for $2600.00us.
Good luck.

Best of the season to all.

Steve
Your boat looks good.
Bill

20 knots is a real comfortable speed in our local waters.
Good luck with Mercury.

Steve
thats too bad about the engine.
I was dropping off my daughter inlaw off at langdale terminal that has to be your boat anchored
there boat looks good.
Hope you come across another engine that fits your needs.

The crazing almost looks like a tecture job gone bad I have never seen crazing like that, usually from impact,flexing or stress points.
Jesse looks happy to be on board.

To give the hatch some strengh you would have to glass in a couple of pieces of 1" x 2" just like stringers. You have a great looking b25 I talked to the seller last summer at that time he didn't think the trailer would make it to Canada and to costly to ship both trailer and boat on a lowbed. Glad ...

John
Your boat looks awsome, how did you manage to do the bow and both sides without getting a dry edge?
Results like that I couldn't begin to calculate the hours you put in filling, fairing and sanding.
