Sea Ray Center console project?

[billfish16]

Possible non V project for someone? Certainly not for me.

LOL, no kidding!

Edit: The Chaparral 21 I have that I will give away for FREE comes with a complete OMC Stringer drive.
(Don't know if that's better or worse.)

Sorry to hi-jack Billfish.

I'm no expert but I know OMC is not a viable option for restoration. I should have been clear that I was just referring to to the boat (hull) for restoration/project. Again I'm no expert but I thought/believe that Sea Ray made a solid boat. In the 80's I made many trips 20 to 50 miles from port and 20 miles offshore for Tuna and Shark on a freind's 20ft Sea Ray Merc I/O. Many of those trips were in questionable weather even for a larger boat. I do remember vividly that I had to hold my nuts with one hand and the windshield with the other while using the seat as a leaning post due to the constant pounding. It was certainly not a "V" ride. That boat is the reason why I chose to buy a "V".

we had a 1975 22srv and we pulled the motor and dropped a bracket with a 225 evinrude. it was actually a nice riding hull, having had it out 30 miles on a few occasions shark fishing. good times.

someone paid $300 too much for that pile

trailer didn't look too bad.

Those model EZ Loaders are thin square tubing and rust out like crazy from the inside especially on the crossmembers. Basically a cheap entry level trailer to get the overall package price down on a boat show special.
