QL Trim Tabs: I do not like them as much as recessed traditional; tabs, but work great on this application. Very aggressive!! Do not put wrong size. You will never get your boat to trim properly.

Looks like the engine would be mounted near the waterline. What do you have for a surge tube?

Winter 30

Base price with 480 cummins is $200,000.00

This boat as pictured with teak decks, teak covering boards, upgraded top and 575 Cat with all accessories, excluding electronics is $250,000.00

We are still working with performance, but right now the cruise
@1950 is 31 knots burning 15 gal/hr. We should be seeing a top end right at 40 knots, we are very close. We are still waiting sea trial with Cat to run her up to full speed. I will post full performance data as soon as we get it.

I love everything about this boat except for the shape/construction of the Top / Tower. However though, I do see how there is great visibility without much obstruction!
Great job!

Pretty rig. You gotta love having a clean transom in that size range.

How do you get in that tower?
