underskin rules!

[Shopguy]

The only results I have thus far is that I can cruise at a slower speed with out the surging feeling. I'd say for my boat being a tritoon and being able to get up on plane....well for me it's just so I can run at a lower speed off plane and not have to deal with water hitting the beams. It feels like rolling down the road and tapping the break over and over....lol. By the way my boat has the saggy butt syndrome with the 480 some odd lbs of 150 on the back and the fact that the third log ends about 4 feet in front of the motor. Seems to level out pretty good once I move up past idle though.
Thinkin maybe over the winter I may get Santa to spring for another bimini up front so we're not all crammed in the back.

so does anybody have any before & after test results with the underskin?

Hoping to get mine skinned this weekend and do a test run

I'll post the results

Cool! Looking forward to your results! Being an Ironworker I can get the skin pretty easily, but don't wanna waste my time if it's not worth it. Thanks

Everyone I know that has don it love it. Makes boat quieter at speed, less pulsing on waves etc

Got the underskinning done yesterday and got to do a test run

First impressions are SMOOTHER Quiet ride. I would compare it to driving your car on the interstate with the windows up (underskinned) vs windows down (not underskinned)

Picked up a good 2-3 mph

Water/wake off the back of the boat is much smoother.
I skied yesterday too, shot right up, that extra couple of mph made it soooo much more fun.

That's awesome Kitchen! Glad for ya. I definitely think it's worth it .
