some thanx and some pix

[scutly]

loads of thanx to all whoever took the time to post all the awesome technical information i found here. these forums have kept me on the water and away from the mechanic. i solved 5 major issues with my boat myself for just the cost of parts and mind you, i never worked on a boat before in my life. bad impeller, broken shift interrupt switch, bad ground wiring on nav lights, and a wrongly wired bilge float switch and battery A/B switch and im sure ill be back again and again as long as i own a used boat.

From the first time a boat goes in the water it's a used boat . They all need work from time to time, and it's nearly always a learning experience.

Great looking boat, i really like the seating layout. Seems very functional.

oh yeah! that was the main reason i bought her over the newer Maxum i was looking at. i haven't seen many cuddys that don't have your standard back to backs and jump seats. TONS of storage under all the seats and in that pic the wife is sitting on padded built in coolers! pilots seat is a double wide with sliding backrest for front or back seating. back rest also serves as a great high seat for drivin with the tilt wheel. gotta love the sink and what we call the "pantry" under it. great for all the foodstuffs and daily trip stuff

Really, looks to me like there will be an uneven weight distribution, most bodies will be on the left?

so far so good. i had about 900 lbs in people and dog on her yesterday and nobody was sitting to still and i never had to mess with the trim tabs. just a bit more effort planing out with the dog in the back on my sons lap. lol
