Got the same rig about a year ago, had 18.5 DE great boat, thought the 21ft would be able to handle rough water better, it does.More gas thought!

How are you liking the panther t4 steering,is it worth it?

I don't think so…i mostly use the tiller handle to steer as the reaction speed of the panther is too slow. not worth the 800 dollar price tag in my opinion.
 
Hey sparrow,

Nice looking rig. I have a 17 foot malibu as well. where did you get the arch done? How much did you end up spending on it? I'm looking for something similar.

Cheers

a local welder i know built it for me…top quality job. can't remember the exact price..approx. 1,300 after powder coat? let me know if you want a contact number.
