Owner’s Comments:
I am very pleased with the performance of the boat. The 420 Iveco sailed this boat with ease.
This boat is built with 2x6 deck framing and plywood, glassed over.
The boat is built rugged for fishing and goes good.
Special thanks to the crew that worked on the project, Jamie, Brennon, Eric Eaton and Ray ray.
Thanks to SW Boatworks for supplying a wonderful and good looking 34 Calvin Beal.
