In 10ft seas

If we have 10 ft seas in the Chesapeake, it's called a hurricane.

I wish I could tell u that I'm over exaggerating but u could look at the marine forecast for bodega bay and it will show u

One thing I know that if Chesapeake had a hurricane that Parker of yours will be able to handle it much like my Parker can handle the seas over here

No doubt.
The boat could handle much more than the owner.

So I'm welding up a kicker bracket on my swim bracket. I have a thought to where to put it. I was thinking about 12" from the main motor bracket but not sure and insight would help tremendously

What is the dead rise on a mv hull

What is the dead rise on a mv hull

Depends on the year.
Older ones like my 1996 model were 14 degree.
Present day MV's are 16 degrees.

There was a point in time where 3 hulls were offered.
14 and 16 degree MV's, and the 21 degree DV.

That's a 14-degree hull.

LOVE that helm addition for the display!

Welded the kicker bracket up last night. We used 1/2" aluminum plate. It came out perfect and almost ready for the sand blast/ powder coat. Also cut the hole for the Armstrong deck plate with the plasma cutter. Here are the pics tell me what u think
