That is hands down the absolute sickest 26 footer that I've ever seen. That motor is bad ass and just looks pure race to me. Mad props to the owner/builder of that thing.
Just one little question? I checked out the running video of it over on the Hot Spots West Forum and noticed that it has a bit of a porpoise to it. Is this inherent to the F-26, or is it the CG being off because of the extra weight hanging off the back (#6 drive/tranny) or is it the driver?
How come I can't find this video????

Because you are cheap KARMA
Hey guys,
Thanks for all the props,you are looking at alot of cold dinners right there.I put my heart and soul into this project,I am happy with the way it turned out.This winter it will come apart to fix what i did not like.The boat handles good,I wont make any changes to motor location,the cg is where it needs to be.If you put the same boat with outboards on it side by side,the water line is within 1 inch of each other.I destroyed my prop in Havasu,the video of the boat on hooky day was the first time with a new prop,I was trimming it to see what it would do.I would classify that as a bunny hopI tried a five blade and the boat loves it,I cant get the boat to porpoise at all.That prop was way to small(28p)I am looking for a 16.5x31RH 5 blade(used)I am also considering EFI,with a buzzard catcher

Boat looks sick even running...
I've seen the boat up close at Jeff's shop and it is absolutely beautiful. Jeff does great work.
