I picked up a mold for cheap so decided to build me another inboard. I always preferred a glass boat ImageUploadedByTapatalk 21363629527.597791.jpgImageUploadedByTapatalk 21363629568.484024.jpgImageUploadedByTapatalk 21363629599.798534.jpg Sprayed my gelcoat |

Take that skull head off of the shifter they break very easy, and hurt the hell out of your hand after.LOL. I would drill and tap the duck head for a shifter. |

It is the old Midnight mold, they are so good running boats. I know what you are talking about with the flare, it opens the hull up big time. |

Thats what mine is at. Keep up the good work, I want to here the reviews of this boat running. I had a neighbor that had a hull like this with a Sweet 16 in it straight drive, used to run 48 on GPS and was hell to drive. |
