Yeah - I did - to draw the waterline. I guess I meant I will feel better when I know she floats under power!

This is one I'm really looking forward to seeing run again. I really like the slightly narrower shape of the stretched 19 vs the 21 and to fix that one up after the delamination nightmare...that's just a great outcome. Keep us posted!
I designed my own boat. This is the build thread:

The whole thing is awesome, but agree the gunwales are impressive, and the sheer is spot on. So happy to see you doing this.

Need to put engine on, do the wiring and the anti-foul and should be good to go!

Any suggestions for a good bow roller/ anchor system?

I am thinking of putting a small “sacrificial” pulpit ...

I went to imtra's website and bought a clearance roller for 150 plus a delrin roller for 61$. Those are 316 stainless.
