So I asked Larry (the guy who built my boat) what if you took an Allison XR 2001 cockpit and built a T Boat deck that fits on the 13r hull?? He obviously thought it was worth a try!

He just sent me some pics of the mock up... He plans to have a new deck mold made soon! I hope to go down there in March to see how he is making out.

Where does Larry work out of?
I'd love to pop by his shop and see his new creation when we're down south in March as well.
Is the cowl in front of the dash removable, like on the xr01?

Guys, I want one of these so bad it hurts!! I am hoping realistically for next years race season... somebody needs to get one for this year though!! 8-) 850 482 3588 ... tell him Dave sent ya!

Larry lives in Marianna Florida. Do a google search for Midway Fish Camp Road, Marianna, FL using the satellite option in google maps... see if you can spot his place!! :D

The cowl in front of the dash is removable like an xr 01 because it is an xr 01!
