Beautifully done Quinn,I have some history with those hulls,I worked at Canoe Cove back in the 70's and 80's,they had the molds for it and produced a few for customers with deep pockets. They are great hulls as far as ride goes but they do require lot's of power because of the extreme deep V that doesn't vary from stem to stern.Your pod should help some by extending the hull.Are you planning a rear steering station,I think most people will want that or some kind of remote steering. I just cut my dashboard out of my boat this week to mount my 2 Simrad MFD's as you've done on this boat,I hope mine turns out as nice as yours. Is your dashboard material aluminum or plastic,I need to find someone to do mine?
