Thanks guys, your kind words mean a lot to me. It's far from "show quality", definitely a 10 footer (at least). All those hours of sweat and itching are finally paying off. I'll spend the rest of the season learning about the much different handling characteristics, and hope to complete the interior this winter. Believe me, if I had the gas money I'd be joining you this weekend! (The Glastron Classic is number one on my bucket list once the boat is finally finished all the way.) Maybe next year it will work out........I hope.
