Just wondering what's the difference between your mate and my Enforcer, they both look similar?

 

[JBS]

The boats are similar.The Maxxum has a 24degree dr and weighs in about 2500lbs.The o/b version is set up for a 25 inch motor has a large cockpit but a smaller cabin.inside gunnel height is 30 inches.To avoid confussion,Checkmate went back to the Enforcer name in 1992 but did not change the boat.I hope this helps.------------JB

JB , I saw the thread over on S&F, interesting history between the Enforcer and the Maxxum. Thinking out loud, If I had that boat probably would remove the splashwell add a sunpad and a Gil bracket to get the motor off the transom. Basically what Old Hickory did to his Enforcer or what mine looks like. My wife would kill me if I brought another project home.

 

[JBS]

Yes,it is interesting to hear the imput from guys who remember the boats back then.The O/Bs then just were not what we have today with the performance,reliability and fuel economy .
BTW you have done an exellent job with your boat.Thank you for posting the progress for all to see.I'm sure it will be helpful to many.Your a credit to the sight!-------------JB
