Very nice job. That is the second BM I have seen with the benches built into the Motor boxes like that.

Good luck with her, and I would also like to know our power.

Inspiring for those of us still lost in projectville. Very nice boat. Where did you come up with the non-skid finish in the cockpit sole and on the combings? Is that a fiberglass product?

Rodger,

Looks Awsome, Those older pictures reseble the stage I am in now. If you have the molds, are you planning on producing any of the parts for sale. I have the Whitaker decks and regular engine boxes which I think are from the same molds as the Cabreras.

I would be interested in the forward deck, forward side panels and the bridge between the engine boxes. Love the widshield also, haven't decided what I am going to do there yet. I know Cabrera wanted $5000+ for there windshield when they used to make Bahia Mar parts.

Call me or email me when you get a chance. 704-806-3085, wrc@southeastcommercial.com

Again, Great Job

Steyr's, well I can't wait to see your numbers when you get her out and running. Sr's got a pair in his Hatteras and is tickled pink by the performance and economy. They are smooth as silk too.

Nice motors...
