I will you call you sometime when i get a chance. If i remember right the later boat had the bow cut down for less lift and had a small hook in the pad. If you are going to use for drag racing the full bow may be better. I think you said you had a 40 hp Toh. This may work if you don't have to run aganist 75 omc motors. I have a Falcon and 40 Yam we bouth new from Ricky many years ago. He may know more about V botton boats than me, I ran Tunnels and Hydros. Where did you get this boat.
