25 bertram restoration

That is a beautifully restored boat. Id be afraid to drill holes in it to mount my downriggers!

Well the weather finally co-operated so we were able to do a sea trial today. The boat is a rocket. At 3000 rpm we were brought up on full plane. At 4200 rpm with two people and 40gallons fuel, we did 20 knots. At 5200 we were doing 36 knots.

I'm so happy with the pod design. The hull waterline was bang on with the added buoyancy from the pod.
 
As all others have said, awesome job. I was on my way down to pick up the boat, when I checked my Lotto Max ticket and it wasn't the winner. Maybe next week. That boat would be worth every penny.

Saw it in person this week and it is beautiful! Is that where you work out of? I wasn't sure or I would have bothered you. Thought you were north ov Vic for some reason.
