Those Stamas 29's run beautifully, but they are very beamy and have low deadrise so they can be bouncy in a chop. They are quite efficient due to flattish bottoms so they scoot right along with moderate HP outboards. I wonder if the stern extension you added will alter the balance much? Glad you are installing a new console -- I've long thought the consoles built by Stamas were poorly-designed, with minimal storage places and a too-vertical slope for MFD's and wheel.

I have a stamas 28 liberty with a 89’ hull and now it has 2 300 v8 mercurys pushing 50 mph stamas boats last forever and they are decent but not good in rough sea

that's why you get rid of the wife and then there will be less debating about boat colors.
