Here is one that I'm doing right now that will have some forward facing mid-cabin seats in the tunnels. It will have a couple of TVs in the mid-cabin with a PS2 linking them so the kids can play games against each other while in the seats.

Here are some shots of the one that's in the mold right now. Yes, it's being infused.

SWEET!!!
How much lighter do you think it will be?
Are you going to infuse the 27 Shadow as well?
Singleton...
Based on the pics it looks like no seats under the windshield just storage. Is that true or is there an option for the seats as with the 27 Shadow?
What power package did you go with?
Thanks
JW has great ideas, we will see what he come up with.
I went with the 496HO, and I am thinking about adding CMI Headers (that reminds me to talk to Steve)
SWEET!!!

The hull itself will be between 25% to 33% lighter. A standard hull with tanks weighs 2250 lbs. The infused ones are weighing in at 1450 lbs.
Yes, we will be doing the 27 Shadow as well. Someone form here on the boards just traded in his 24 Stealth for an infused 27 with a 525.

That is a lot of weight difference for just the hull isnt it, a lot!! 800 lbs less mass and it still has good integrity?? or is it just for special circumstances? I'm sure you wouldnt build a flimsy boat just for speed but thats a LOT to give up. What will the total weight be for a finished boat. My boat lists at 4250 lbs but I doubt it. I had the whole kit and kaboodle weighed at Acoma Van Lines because of a deal with MVD and permanent trailer tags, I was very surprised to come in at 7300 lbs and change. Your graphic's are awesome, no doubt. NSF
That is one beautiful 26. It was a bitter sweet day leaving the 24 last Saturday, we sure had some good times in that boat. Can't wait to see how the infused Shadow performs. These next few months are going to crawl by.

Based on what Wes taught us about infusion when we visited Trident my guess is it will be much lighter and much much stronger.(John and Wes could explain it 100X better than me)
There is no downside other than the cost for the builders to set up for the process.
