    Hatch mirror over engine

    Hey Dave, Keep us in the loop as to what you end up using. I asked this same question a while back but never really found what to use. I have a sportfire too so the hatch is a little odd shaped. Where did you get the mirror from??

    other boats we all own

    I used to have a 1984 Glastron Carlson CVX-16 with a 115hp merc on the back. That was a fun boat and that merc was always reliable.

    Leedo's 1989 Sportfire

    Thanks for posting these Chris, I put some new decals on it but they don't show up too well. That made a huge improvement. I have a 23" prop on it and it sure does take a bit to settle her down. Do you guys think it would have a lot better launch with a 19"??

    Whats a good wax
