Ok, I'll pick one up and give it a shot. Faztbullet, The weight is distributed the same as it always was; I was very careful about that. Paid close attention to what I was taking out (rotten stringers, transom design, waterlogged floatation, deck, glass and location of seats and weight) and replaced everything meticulously. She planes out nicely, not nose heavy. This old tri-hull was never made for rough water (none of them were), but on fairly smooth water it's a blast. I'll keep y'all posted and thank you all again for the input.

Just a quick note..... I haven't given up, but between rains, pains and hurricanes I still haven't had a chance to try out the tach and prop. Hopefully soon. I'll keep you posted.
