Give me a few minutes and I'll take a picture and kind of explain it out to you.

That's my only stern view on my phone. There is a strake in between both bunks. And you can kinda see the pad. I've always been raised knowing it as a delta keel. Anyone know if that's the design name?

I was under the impression that the vector does NOT have a chine...at least in the traditional sense of the word....

Here are the two strakes from the front. The ones closer to the keel go back and make up the pad in the back. The upper ones end at the trim tabs between the bunks of the trailer

the outer most ''lip'' where the red stops continues to the transom and creates a chine on the Vector.

Very cool. Only ever talked to one other outboard vector guy. They had a 300 promax. Is the one your talking about all red by chance? Saw a photo of it in Parker taken by river pirate.

Outboard makes a whole lot more room but I still like 4 people or less lol

I had Lynch and my Buddy Steve (v-drive blown Vector) ready to settle this whole debate on saturday afternoon, unfortunately Lynch's tranny decided to take a shit while we were getting on plane saturday morning.


It will be a fun debate after they pair off . Hopefully Lynch gets his tranny fixed and launches in the winter time.....

The Bluewater Showdown drag race should have a Day Cruiser only class 20-22 feet to find out who has the fastest boat.

Beautiful Boat!:thumbsup

I agree, if it were me i would add a pin stripe, possibly grey to match the trailer, where the red meets the white to break up the colors, it looks like its un finished to me, I think it would be a nice subtle touch....
