Sold the 150 and put my 75 merc on it last season to cruise around. Tore out the interior last week then got too busy to do anymore work. But still optimistic to be on the water by August..

Ive got a 150 black max for it, no jack plate tho but thats next year. The bottom on mines got a delta pad mod and strake extension. Should be interesting to see how much more stability it gains at high speeds.

We'll have to compare notes later. I went with a full length pad on my 16 Low-Pro. I should have it back in the water late next week if all goes well. |
