Any info on fuel burn, prop size or gear ratio? Thanks

Thank you! I haven’t had a chance to use it very much this year, I just finished the house this spring, I’ve been working on the old house to get it ready to sell but it was loaded with termites. Now it’s done and I think I’m more ready for hunting season than boating right now. Hope all is well

Great looking setup you have there, boat and house.
I do like that generous eyebrow on the boat, we need to extend ours to cut down on sun on some angles.

Hi Delfin. Could you point me in the direction of your boats website.
Always looking for clues. Thx, Alan
