Nice looking boat...

she has an interesting solution to the outboard well plug. it looks like the factory plug has been recut to fit around the outboard:

Doesn't seem like the OB would turn very much.  I suppose the rudder could do all of the work as with an IB, but in my tight quarters, I need both in concert to get around.  Wondering if it would be of great advantage to lose that bit of drag.  Might keep more water out of the Laz.
 
I'm a sucker for those finished winch bases.
