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.
