Re: My new Boat
Paul,
Your boat looks to have a lot of Bow rise built into it.
Was this always the case with the T38 or is this new?
Don't seem to remember it being so prominent before....

Re: My new Boat
Not sure if it’s any different than previous models, but we do know the floor design has changed, Andy ( the Hobbit) pointed out it was different on recent pics I’d posted up, so maybe it’s a completely new designed bow

Re: My new Boat
Good stuff Paul B.
I'm sure you'll have many a happy voyage in her.
Pretty sure that's about the same deadrise as my T3.8.
My T3.5ae is almost flat in comparison.
Can't fault my old T3.8 - they are cracking Sibs

Re: My new Boat
Happy days Paul, great conditions for the first run out. I think there may be a 20 on the horizon somewhere? But anything over 20mph is enjoyable in a SIB
Why am I here - I should be in my boat fishing!!
