I know I asked you before a long time ago, but I forgot what you said since the boat was gone. I found the 1st one out of the mold, so it says. I think you said that only a few were made. Any indication how something like this would run? Could the bow be opened up on it?
Thanks
This is the boat,

that is a very rare boat. I can't believe how clean it is.
Yes it could be made in to a mid cabin open bow very easily. Any good upholsterer could do it, they charge from
$2500 to $5,000 to do it depending on how good they are.
I'd give Sleek here in town a chance at it. After all, they
already do it to their new ones, it is simply a matter of cutting out the right sized hole, reinforcing what's left properly and then dropping a "bucket" of prebuilt seats
into it. Basically, you trade the bow bed for seating.
I'll let you know about how the performance was or is
after I contact a guy that I know that had one.
Nice price also!

Cool!...Thanks a lot. It's kinda far, but after a little updating it could be real nice. Just need a disco light for the cabin.:D
I'd be curious what happen to the mold if it has good performance.
