    I'd bolt a swim step right to the side.

    Beautiful boat but based on the early numbers quoted, it does not seem like the additional 20K for the third engine is worth it.....If a 29 with Open Bow and twins can do 100; and you only get 110Mph out of this one with three, I don't think it was worth it for the trade off and headache of three....but its only money and the owner built the boat he wanted with it.

    That 110 is with the motor's still in break in Mode, and very little set-up time. I'm sure there is alot more there.

    Maybe I missed it, but the thread over on HB said the ran 100 Miles or 98 on the GPS at 6200rpm.....I did not see where they ran 110 so I am assuming after break in and they spin to around 6800-6900 they will be around 110-112.....

    What if you set up a 29 with the new 275hp merc's 4 stroke with more tourque, bigger wheels,. more top end and better acceleration

    Once they can get 450HP out of those new Mercs, that may be upgrade time....otherwise I will probably get something smaller that will fit in our docks in Parker, but common sense never seems to win out in my boat decisions..
