Nice one.
The XR20 is a quick boat, apparently. Have you had her out on the water yet?
Is the Yam a 115 or 130?

I didn't get the chance to go out on it unfortunately but it looks like a capable boat with 115 yam, it could be for sale, if anyone's interested i'll put you directly in touch with the owner, PM me.

The tubes are new hypalon, originally these boats had one chamber on each side, the new tubes have a bulkhead so there are now 4 chambers in total with pressure relief valves, other work included repairing a sizeable hole in the deck which previously been repaired very badly after an impact to the hull, polishing, rewire and new upholstery.
