Here it is! Finally ran her today with a video to prove! Merry Xmas to me!

I am thrilled to be able to share this video. After a lot of sweat and tears the project has come together and i couldn't be happier. She ran fantastic and i was clocked at 46mph at a little more then half throttle (wanted to run her easy the first run). I was so amazed at how steady she was at speed the boat just felt like it was locked in. Also what a rooster tail she now officially gets the name Rooster so i guess it will now be a he lol. Anyway hope you all enjoy and Merry Christmas!

Congrats on getting the bottom wet again. It's a great-looking boat, on top of having family history. Might've helped if you had posted this video in your original thread though, so people could relate it to the pictures:

New to the board just thought i would share my latest project
