So I got this 2012 stv were gunna finally start rigging. After alot of back n forth in my own head i decided to press on with it. The hull itself is pretty light, just a tick over 500lbs. Im gunna keep it single steer, hydrolic steering. For now Im gunna 15" merc. Ive got a really nice 280, but the idea of drag is starting to open up. I intend on racing next summer, i missed last summer. I also intend on showing up to Gravenhurst this time with a charged battery, but you never know. lol. I just ordered a bunch of other stuff, gauges, wheel and so on. ... Ill post pics as we get it together..

Damn that boat looks familiar hook!

Should be pretty cool.... You should set it up side by side to get the ladies out for a romantic cruise.

You might want to talk to Himagain about his setup before committing to any kind of concept.
If I remember correctly - he had to add weight for the drags with a 2 up setup and his tall self in the seat.

You might need even more with a centre setup

I thought about the side by side steer thing alot. To do it properly you have to add a section of floor. I think for the amount that ill get out in it. Ill keep in center steer. Maybe ill do side by side next winter. Thatll gimmie something to look forward too. lol
