I was on their web site and came across this 31---it looks like the Marlin's Wahoo getting some finishing touches..

pretty neat ideas

hydraulic riggers on a B31

Two other hydraulic pistons on the top of the hard top.... aft retractable sun shade???

Enclosure track?? run 3 inches below the flybridge top all around??

Looks great. I like the hydrolic outriggers. Pretty cool.

[Bertramp]

Definitely Marlins boat .... and it IS as gorgeous as the pictures indicate !

[Capt.Frank]

JP, I am not sure but the other two hydrolics look like they are for raising and lowering the antanas?
She looks AWSOME

[JP Dalik]

OK upon further inspection it looks like the pistons on top handle lowering the antenna's. Man and I thought we took the boat over the top.

Marlin if the a/c shoots up the helmsmans shorts I will call you the king of B31's cause the only thing cooler would be to have your own personal "ball washer" (thanks to Lewis Black for that one)

Thx for the comments, it is my project boat that the Capt has guided me thru, I knew it would be difficult to deploy the diggers, antenna, and teaser reels once the EZ2CY I'll enclosure was installed, so we automated, I do wear long pants to minimize the shrink factor on the F/B the 18 k btu unit is installed in the tub as the the Capt says, she is powered by a pair of 330 electronic Cummings , 3.5 nexgen, teak covering boards,inlay teak cockpit ,teak transom, single piece teak and holly cabin sole built on the bench, all of which are held In place with epoxy, not one fastener was used, what a fun project , I installed a raritan Atlantis head, coupled to an Lectroscan /holding tank, still have the interior cabinetry to finish

i also installed a tv satellite dome on the hardtop, it's necessary to watch CNN when making the crossing to the Bahamas , dialed into Sirius weather to see what the wave ht is in the gulf stream so we don't get any surprises, went with 12" simrad navionics because there bottom machine could read the depths at 25k + knot when looking for deep drop location in the 1000' range, garmin could not do that even though there touch screen stuff is neat ,all about fishing, digital radar will allow us to pickup birds when looking for yellowfin,6kw open array
