I've asked William to post pics of his new boat but it seems like he'd rather do it elsewhere.

Don't mean to bust you out in a rude way, but I'm happy you've got this thing going. Very happy.
First time out was 35.4 & he had more throttle left. Naturally, you've got to get the feel of it before showering down & he did the right thing; Get used to the characteristics & then start working on setup.
As a few of you know, I sold the hull & engine back in the summer to him. It was intended to be for someone that already had the spare parts laying around & could throw it together pretty quick & at not much cost. Well our buddy here, decided to upgrade from the stock XP drive that would normally come on it & start it out as a real player! No stock exhaust, no single drive here!
We shared a lot of correspondence over a two week period before he finally dropped the check in the mail. It made me very nervous about selling to a guy that had never built a boat, but promised to help through every step of the way if he did buy. Don't want to insult him by saying such words as "newby" because his work is far from it. You really have lots of talent.
Have a look for yourself.
William, it was a pleasure doing business with you & you know how to reach me.
