That's the only flaw I can find w/ that boat...isn't there a bottom-paint that color?...


...that and he put the compass on the port dash ::)..."Hey, Maude...where we goin' ??" ;D ;D ...

Looks like he does a lot of shallow loadin'...string from the trailer winch runs to back of trailer ...

Thanks for gettin' those pics on the board, Skools ;) 8) ...a V-20 that good lookin' NEEDS to be here... :D ...

yea I think he just painted over the original bottom paint, not liking the looks of that

Re: Nice 74 on ebay - Pricey
 

Thanks for putting the pics up. That is one nice boat. Kind of gives a person insperation to fix up the boat real nice.

Re: Nice 74 on ebay - Pricey
 

Just read some of your posts.......we removed almost all of the antifouling paint with acetone and and LOT of elbow grease! What you see in the not so revealing picture is whats left of the blue paint. No the boat was NOT painted, ever! That is the original gelcoat and its gorgeous! All 3 owners of this boat(32 years worth)were anal as hell, with me being the worst(most obvious) the hull has been kept waxed this boats whole life and its very evident. Everyone I talk to (many)thinks its been gelcoated...I love it! As for the statment about an outboard bringing more money........yeah right! this 165h.p.(250 c.i.d. chevy) is the most reliable engine ever put in a boat, period. its a Jasper (marine engine)with 150 troublefree hrs. Yes I installed an hour meter when I fitted the engine. I have done ALL the work to this boat thats why I know its worth every penny. Dave (the stickler)

Oh......I forgot to mention I have a brand new lower unit assy, exhaust elbow and Mercruiser service maunual that goes with the boat.....Dave ;)

Everyone with a I/O should have all them things and more!! ;)

Re: Nice 74 on ebay - Pricey
 

I don't recommend the average boater own an I/O. It can be expensive no doubt....In my experience (20 years a U.S. Coast Guard engineer)owning and operating one is hands down simple. :D I hate all that oily smoke anyway....... cough! cough!

Go E Tec! Nice boat! Billy Mac ;D
