You DO realize the motor is in backwards, right? LOL...

Nice ride. Love the seats. Wish I could find some like that for my project. Hope it works out well.

You will love the ride quality that hull offers. VERY smooth, and can go fast when you want. Plus side is now you can cruise with the jets @ 2000rpm. :smile27:

YES, and use less gas doing it.
Not to mention having pride to say "it's a V-drive".  :smile17:  :smile17:
