My new hull, she is still a baby . . .

Here is the stern shot of my hull just out of the mold. I'm liking the steeper deadrise than the 12 degrees I'm used to, this is about 20, should cut much nicer through the 2-3 footers, much nicer. I like the strakes going all the way to the stern as well. First time I had seen the pic I thought there were pieces missing from the gelcoat/hull but the black stuff is fiber/cloth that is just hanging over the stern making the illusion that it is missing material.




Here is the interior. That bow flair just makes me go crazy, like the curve of a woman's hips! Grrrrrrrrrr!
They put the stringers in and foamed the voids. Both of the 60 gallon Poly fuel tanks are in as well. One in the stern and the other further forward, there is a space for under the console where the batteries, power steering pump for the O/B and the Bennett trim tab pump will all be housed along with the portable poo-poo storage device.

Soon all the wiring will be laid down and the tubing/hoses for the fuel lines, then the deck, little by little . . . I'm just so excited.

That's my guess... Not too many built to order northeast boats with mama's hip in the bow flair - 23? But I thought they were notched transoms or is that going to be on a bracket?

i don't think the northcoast 23 has 20 Deg at the transom.

And I don't think it has that much flair.

Also, I don't think Northcoast makes a boat without a boot stripe in the gel.

It also looks kind of warm in those pics...

So I guess it is a carolina's boat... but i am not sure... still thinking about it.

Here is a starboard shot when the boat first came out of the mold. The stringers were just put in and not yet foamed and no fuel tanks. Love that rising shearline, like the sloping upward curve of a woman's breast in a push-up bra, mmmmmmm.

There will be a bracket off the stern putting the engine out another 2 1/2 feet.



Finally here is a picture of the bow, nice sharp entry, good to slice right through the nasty stuff, sooooo-nice, like a set of high-heels on a woman.



These pictures are like the ultrasound of the baby . . .

I'll keep the pics coming as I get them from the maker, I don't pick it up until sometime in May so I have a way to go to wait until this thing is done. I wait for the next set of pics.

That was my guess after the second set of pics. Maybe the 233 open?

Nice ride
