Anyone know what the average weight (without fuel) should be for a 24" t-hull with a 3.5 K&B? I'm redoing on of JD's old design "Hawk Signature Series" and I'm thinking of covering the wood center piece with fiberglass.

Hey Jerry,
do you think it will be to much weight if I put a single layer of fiberglass over the center piece?
thanks,
Pete

RE: 24
Jerry, on your old "Hawk Signature Series" What height should I adjust my PROP center line with the bottom of the hull? I used to own a real shovel nose and the center line of the prop used to be in-line with the bottom of the boat so half the prop would spin in air and the other half in the water. I have never done it on a tunnel hull and there is air between the sponsons!?!?!
Please let me know your thoughts,
Thanks,
Pete
