Nice job! How did you fasten the MSD to the side of the hull?

I think that if it were me, I would maybe glass some blocks or pucks where the screws go and then hook the box to those "standoffs". A boat hull is a very flexible object and any thin or weak areas are prone to failure. (stress cracks) That MSD and whatever the gray one is may fall off the first big roller you hit. Just my opinion.....

Actually the hull is probably nearly an inch thick where we mounted it. I am fairly confident we will be OK. The "gray" thing is the engine management computer made by F.A.S.T.
I cant wait to splash this sucker. Looking for low 80s I hope!!!!!
