Hey Captain.

Our keel will be supported on it's one flat spot, about 2 or 3 feet
back from the bow end. The rest of the keel has a skeg hanging
down which can not support any weight - so keel rollers are out.

There are more pics of Delilah at: http://tinyurl.com/k0kk

These pictures go through about last spring. I'll try to upload
more later today that show the keel, skeg, and our welding
of the trailer to date.

Thanks for asking!

Very nice - looks a lot like my project boat - a '68 Cris*Craft
Corsair.

Tom, got any pics of your project to share.

Also, I'm in the Berkshires Mass. You planning on going to
any boat shows this summer. We're looking at going up to
Clayton NY and probably the one at the CT River Museum
on July 10/11, amoung others.

Gary, All I can say is WOW! You have really made remarkable progress.
Engine. Is that a Gray Marine unit?

Aw, thanks.

The engine is a Chris Craft model "M"
which is, I believe, based on the Hercules JXD
engine with a few different parts for the
marine use. It's 130 horse, about 800 lbs
and seems to be built to last.
