21' with a extended transom
Yep
Specmar designed and wrote the file then everything cut at CNC shop
Comes precut with pieces labeled/numbered
Like putting together a puzzle with instructions and number for every piece ..........grin

You should peruse their website
They can make changes and modifications to kinda build what you want
This build I'm having done is a 21 orca hull with some modifications
I sloped the floor more toward the bow
Added a bigger fuel tank
squared the ransom
And added bracket and swimstep

This looks like a job for those geeky mutherfuckers who actually built the shit on the front of the Legos box.
It's going to have a 75 gal tank and plan is a 150 Yamaha
I'll have a reasonable cruise speed (22-24 kts) without having to run it too hard and keep a decent fuel burn
A 150 will also give me a extra motor should I have a problem with one of my Almar motors during charters (probably overthinking it)

This one is going to be set up primarily as a hunting rig for both local and longer range trips
Plan is to make the cabin long enough to sleep two for comfortable over night trips
Probably do a spring brownie trip in it

Also, I kept the tank that came out of my almar with the thought of having a extra 75 gal tank to sit on the back deck for long trips when I didn't want to have to find a place to refuel
I'd guess the welding will be done in the next two weeks
Still haven't decided on what exactly I'm doing for windows
Think I'll make a few calls in the morning and see what I can sort out on them
Dealer will take a week or two working on it
Should be bloody with spring kings though and definitely spring bear blood !

I'm getting excited to get this one done and in the water
Hopefully will be a good overnighter as it will have room to sleep two on bench seats
Camping trips for deer bear and moose are it's main goal along with a decent fishing deck
Hopefully it works as planned

Also going to have a across deck removable platform with folding ramp to haul a wheeler or motorcycles
And a espar diesel heater ......... grin

And going to have aluminum collars welded on inside of transom covering scupper holes so I can screw a pvc plug in the collar to be able to haul heavier loads
Regrouped on power and decided to roll the dice on one of the new mercury's
If the few performance bulletins I've found are remotely accurate i should have the same or less fuel burn at like speeds due to turning less rpms with the merc
Be curious to see if that pans out in real life ?

I am tempted to try the new Merc 225s, when I repower. I really like them on paper....both in reduced weight and lower price tag.raghornjp said:
That's the motor I'm getting so will have at least some info on how they perform albeit on a smaller boat than yours
Like you say , they look good on paper and the few performance reports I've been able to find

Are them dudes laughin cause the cab roofline looks like a sheep herders wagon?raghornjp said:
Sorry, had to say it.
Yeah, probably shed a side wind good as well. Might have good manners on a troll though that flat bottom may take away from that.
Don’t believe my Dad’s been out yet. I drew spring bear for next year. Should make a decent king troll and glass the back of the bays trip.
With the roads slicked up I don't want to even tow the little boat over the hills but if its been that good I might have to try...
Need some lips under them benches so stuff stays under there.
Looking like a good utility boat for hunting, trapping, and fishing.

Thought about that but may just drill holes in seat legs fore and aft and stretch a bungee to hold stuff in
Yea
4' sliders followed by 2' windows on each cab side
All side cab windows are 25" tall
Will also have windows on each side of the door on the back of the cab

Yea finally
Should look a lot different once windows are added
Hopefully motion glass delivers on their completion date which is next week

Yep and they are above the swim step ..............grin
He's welding threaded collars in for scuppers so I can screw pvc plugs in if I want to load heavy
