MJ Has a new ??

[macojoe]

Befor I get into this, I want to say THANK YOU TO ALL!!

You guys were great in trying to help me find boatys and that relay you were putting toghter was over the top!!

You guys are turely a great crowd! And I am proud to say you are my friends and that I am a part of this board!!

So now here we go!

MJ has a new??

Thats right ladys and gentelman I have a new bounceing baby

SEA OX
23'
W/A Cuddy
115 gal gas tank *:o
Hydrulic steering
AM & FM CD player
Marine Radio
Garmin 168 GPS Combo unit
FACTORY BRACKET!!!!
Full Encloser, Bimi need repair

Has a 225 Evinrude that is in pretty bad shape eletric wise??
They had wires all over the place?? *
Lower unit prop shaft moves in and out and does not go in reverse unless you hold shaft in??

Turns over great and he also said he spent $2000 getting motor ready last year??
Had top end rebuilt?? *Compression done by CB and eye says other wise.

5 cylinders read 95 to 99 and one reads 118, I think they fixed one cylinder and screwed him on the rest?

So I might try to play with it but I have no plans on running this motor!

As soon as my V sells I wil look for a good used 200 to 250, I want the 250 but all depends what I find out there with the cash at the time??

About $4000 is what I will have to spend.

CB & I and a friend Pete drove about 600 miles this week lookingn at different boats. *And with some cleaning this boat is cherry!!

I was going to bleach her all up and get her like new before telling you guys, but then decided to let you see her at her worse.
Then show you what I have done later!!

So here it is!

Congratulations MJ, glad you found a new ride!










Does it have a bilge pump?

[msbhammer]

Your Welcome, the bill for my advise is in the mail.
1-bracket for services rendered. *;D ;D
Ah...a man with a camera. I'm feeling better now. Was gonna start prank calling SKOOL for the reat of the day. *;D
Great Find MJ. I like it. 20" shaft motor *??? Looks like all she needs is a real nice clening. What about swapping motors from your V ?? just to get wet ?
You done good. *;)

[macojoe]

Thanks guys!!

Hammer thats a 25" motor and a Factory Bracket!! *This is not a conversion, *;D

Can't swap motors mine boat is for sale

[Airslot]

Congrats MJ. Hope she serves you well and may the fish follow her around ;D Not only does she hold 117 gallons, but another 12 on deck? ???

[macojoe]

they were having motor problems, and decided to add gas to a portable to see if it was the tank?

I just hooked up and took away with everything inside ;)

Has Canno Down Rigger also, found below deck

[chesapeake_dreamin]

use her in good health my friend! I knew your ship would come in (pun intended) She looks good and with your knowledge, I'm sure it will be no time till she's top notch. That reminds me, how you getting aroundthese days? Foot doing well I hope, it's going to need to be with the work ahead of you.

[macojoe]

Thanks for aking Ches, Foot is well, gives me a little crap from time o time do to he bone that was taken out.

But as long as I were shoes all the time ::) No bare feet I am fine, Now were did I put them shoes any way??

[bradford]

Congrats MJ! Glad to see you got something good and stout. I've eyed the sea ox line now and then and supposedly their built heavy. Best of luck with her.

[macojoe]

Thanks!!

Boat has 5 stringers instead of the normal 3! All layed up with 24 oz woven Hull alone 3000#

I got the book too ;)

[Monkey Butler]

Nice rig with lots of potential. I wish you good luck with her.

Is it a 20" or 25" motor?

[dmas]

congrats macojoe, very nice looking boat.. :)

[msbhammer]

Does this mean MJ needs to return all of his V-20 tee shirts. ;D

[lumberslinger178]

Hammer I want to see someone try to take them back!!

You want to try? You can't even get them to unblock your boat!! ;D

[macojoe]

Thanks for the offer LB!! We will get her spotless tomorrow and then start on fixing any little things we find.

[Carl]

Congrats on the great find. With all those gages in the dash, is one a fuel gage?? ;) :D ;D

Enjoy the boat.


Carl

[Hammerhead]

Good score. Hope ya find jes the rite motor for it.

[Airslot]

Hmmmm.....does this beast have a bilge pump perhaps? Or have you removed it already ::)

[Shawsee]

Congrats MJ on your new baby and I hope she serves you very well. :)

[Airslot]

Anybody else hear that the Sea-Ox forum was looking for a new menstruator ;D?

[Franco]

Air, MJ is avoiding the bilge pump issue, I asked him that in the first reply to his post!

[phester]

good luck mj, hope she serves you as well as the V. Seems like it's nicely laid out.....lotsa room and a legitimate cuddy!

[jasoncooperpcola]

Thats a nice boat! I thought it was a 250 Sportsman at first. ;D i love the huge back deck. my 250 Sportsman has more cabin than it needs :(

[macojoe]

Yes it has a bildge pump, and not only 1 but 2 and they both work!! One is in the stern and the other in the belly up front bith on auto switches!! ;)

Thanks everyone!!

[Monkey Butler]

MJ,

Having two boats and a wife is about as close as I've ever come to having a threesome ;D. I think it's an exclusive club so be sure to document with pictures.

How does 8 in the yard, with a girlfriend(haven't committed penile suicide yet) stack up?

[charlie_the_tuna]

hey good for you.
nice vessel.
use her well.

[macojoe]

Well I only have one in the yard, I told my wife that I had to borow the money to get the new boat and that my friend had to have the boat at his place till it sold in order to loan me the cash ;)

But really he gets 10,000 cars a day by his office and I put there in hopes to get some calls, I got 2 from there today and it has been there for 2 days now.

[Skools_Dual]

great find MJ you could have got mine running

you should just fix that motor those are tough motors, the motor factory would have only had 92 to 95 psi per cylinder.

just buy one of these from this guy i have bought 2 sets from him, he has more. then fix all the power stuff.

[Seacrets]

Congratulations MJ!! You can't go wrong with a Sea Ox. It should serve you well. Skools just might have something you could bolt on.

[macojoe]

I wish it was that T Top!!

Looks good!

[Pipe_Dream]

[Stinky_Hooker]

Very cool man...I glad for you! Those are nice boats for sure!

[macojoe]

Thye Maco 2 has been moved some 50 miles away for better Visabilty I hope to make the sale faster??

Got 3 calls from were it is and they all have 2 to 3000, no one has the $4000 :'(

I have gottewn 3 emails from people sent pictures and they never call again?? :'(

[Stillrunning]

I had a 20' CC Sea Ox and my buddy purchased a new 150 Johnson for his V20 CC the same week. A month latter we were out and he said he was selling the V and I asked what he was selling it for. It was what he had just paid for the new motor. I said sold and the Sea Ox was put up for sale.

[Sean]

Holy Crap :o :o How did I miss this, I had to find out on another site (SOL) ::)
Congratts MJ, she looks like just what the doctor ordered!! Foul weather doesn't have a chance now!
So, are you gonna take me cod fishing ;D

[macojoe]

When I get the boat all ready there will be a open invite for anyone that wants to make the trip to the cape!!

[shore-power]

Very nice! With a little spit & polish she will look sweet! Its exciting rigging up and new ride. I just bought a new jon boat last week and even rigging that little thing up is enjoyable. Good luck with your new ride.
