IMHO, the cool factor of that time machine would prevent me from changing it. But it's your ride. I have no idea how that hull would react to a setback, but it should be positive, especially if your planning to add some horsepower...

Keep in mind, the resins in the hull are very brittle and oxidized, which could make the changes more prone to failure and a tad more difficult..

Bitchen boat BTW... :thumbup:

I would leave it as it is and go have fun.  If you want to get something to go fast, start with something a lot newer and maybe something that will ride a lot better.

Cool boat, by the way.

My car said it was 104 in Riverside today!  That means that there are months of water time left this year, right?
