I met a guy today that had an old Atom Skier that had seen better days, but he liked the boat so much he's transfering the power train into this boat. Pretty ambitious project, but it's coming right along. This will be a Y Block powered boat.

Let us know how it balances, planes out, etc. I always wondered if an I/O boat could be converted to inboard.

It isn't easy to make a silk necklace out of a sows ear. I respect the skill set and creative mind that is willing to try. Next thing someone will try to put a jetski into an outboard hull. They might have already, right Brian?

Looks like he will be sitting on or next to the engine to drive it. Keep the pictures coming.
