Avon Searider 5.4

Dear All,

I have been working on a new project and thought why not share it..
Always loved the seariders... and finally found one locally and have been working on it for some time now. Also made my own suspension seats. Really enjoyed the process.. and looking forward for the first tests! I have made quite some modifications to the hull and transom to support my modest V4 two stroke..

Also made a flat floor (fixed to the original posts) to accommodate my console and my side by side mounted seats.. Here some pics of the build... Im nearly there! next week first tests and some cosmetic touches to the engine...

Christian.

Can't wait for the speed and consumption #s.
Also awesome seats. And great design overall.
The battery/fuel box is in the rear starboard side?

I'll post some info! Consumption is not impressive to the low side I guess....
Fuel,oil tank and battery are in the centre console. Bit of a tight fit... but it's in.
