Thanks for the photos Matt - certainly not a Manos moment (I'll see if I can dig that one out for you!) looking good and it is a boat certainly worth considering, but I think I want a weekender which would mean I would have to fit a cabin etc in it as well ............ I think you will end up with a great boat!

H-actually, it is gonna get a cabin. Just the right amount of headroom for you, too.

Cool - when you have some drawings or photos of one done could you send me something?
Would a Seatek on an Arneson fit on that, and what are the implications of having a single Arneson? I have seen the ProVee boats do the chine walk dance a lot - that might upset the wife (to be) and the dog!

If you paint it, for feks sake don't paint it that orange colour.

Not sure where you'd fit the Seatek - reckon it'd end up in the cabin.

All the Arrows have been built single big block - although there is also an OB one just ordered too. Sidewinder was twin small blocks, so that could be an option:

Thanks Carl. I did consider trying to track sidewinder down - got a couple of contacts - but once CC found the arrow (he has all the credit for that), and I also researched the original magnum hulls a bit more, I realised the arrow was a no brainer. My understanding is that Magnum hulls run out of handling much over 70, and take monster HP to do it too - hopefully the pad on the Arrow resolves that.

Matt,
Your Arrow will be awesome! I vote for the Single Big Block.
If you want to run an Arneson you will have to fill in the transom notch. If it has one.
Here are a few pics of my original 27 sport. It's getting new engines this spring!
Jeff
