Lookin good! I'll be interested to hear how it runs with the setback. I'm going from 6" to 4" On my 16' Hydrostream, but my transom is notched.... |

Yea the bottom deffinetly looks like a better design for top speed than my sidewinder, even with the delta pad mod |

Just looking for a few opinions on my stringer. Seems 1/2 the ppl with these hills run a single stringer down the centre of the pad. The other 1/2 run 2 stringers down each side of the pad. What do you think is best? Am i over thinking this? Lol its not a 100 mph boat, either way seems to be pretty solid but just thought id ask |

Well started making some headway, got the boat on a mobile cart and popped the deck back off. Finishing up the transom. Cutting back the bare matt back about 1" into where its resined in, the sealing with epoxy. Once thats fixed up i can put the deck back on for good and set the stringer/ floor in.
