Yes, the 20's were built in British Columbia for several years - that's all I know. There are a few around here in Seattle.
I believe the OP is asking about the characteristics of a boat equipped with engine amidships driving a transom mounted I/O unit through the use...
I believe you de-rate the motor by 30%. For instance a 115 Yam is equiv to 80 hp if you buy it in the jet format. Sizewise I've seen guys put...
Well an inboard jet works better with a bit of a v bottom but if its jet power you want for working the skinny water then by all means you should...
Rusty, I looked at that plan on the Glen-L site and they show a motor well option. Was wondering what you thought of that and why you chose a...
Nice looking project. Why the wood details?
Dick, I just ordered a Lincoln 350. Would be interested in getting your input on settings. I've got a bunch of mods to do on two boats and want to...
I agree, too much load & stress focused on middle of transom. Would recommend at very least to use o/b bracket that is full width swimstep type....
E paint has been working good in the PacNW. Don't know about tropical waters.
Nice job! It definately has that NZ look to it. Did you already know how to weld when you started it? What machine did you buy and what do they...
Sounds kind of like rotting stringers or rotting transom bleeding out into the low areas.

Your best bracket for that boat would be a Porta type. It would give you up to 24" of vertical lift which would provide the flexibility you'll...
Have you considered Interlux Perfection? Dead simple system.
For a wake that high you are going to need a 400' freighter doing about 18 knots

Its the same problem we all wrestle with . . . trying to make one boat do a variety of contradictory things. In this case the owner needs the...
Nobody intentionally goes out in rough seas (usually), problem is they get nasty once you are out there. The bigger power would provide a means to...
I'll vouch for that. In my area we slap an 8-10 hp 4 stroke on fairly beefy fishing boats to troll for salmon. At WOT going with wind & current...
Well lets be honest - it'll be money down the drain no matter what Keith decides to do as this hull is getting close to obscurity and little value...
