"Last one is under deck behind dash if that helps anyone out."
If that is looking under the deck, are we seeing daylight along the bow/front end of the hull?

Sunny day and light shined thru gel where it was capped, also on deck where paint was thin or gone.

AND it doesn't take all that much HP to go fast in a Vdrive HYDRO... If a SK can go 80+ with 500 HP, the hydro can go faster, I believe...
It's the most efficient way to go through water, as compared to a flat, jet, whacker on a Vpad or MVPad or a deep V or any other hull...
3 points of contact as your speed builds, sponsons and the prop...
BUT , I wouldn't do anything with that hull unless you really like the itch of fiberglass and love mixing resin, and painting.... The floors/stringers will be saturated with water, rest assured.... Look at Buzz and Paul's rebuild thread, that is what your looking at, a total gutting of all wood/floors and rebuild all structures just to get to a point where you can begin to make it look nice...

It would be a cool piece of wall art in your man cave SHOP...Last edited by 2manymustangs; 12-21-2017 at 09:35 AM.

I'd keep it a total roach like Rick Kings snotty sounding scruffy turd. Can't get enuff of this.
The thought had also briefly crossed my mind it would be cool to stuff a direct drive stroker up front similar to this one...
.... I already have a massive Peterbilt steering wheel.
