Lumber, it is a pretty lady. I always liked the dual consoles but never found one that wasn't trashed too much, you did good ;D

Re: my 87 again
 

Hey Lumber, nice boat and love what you did with the teak in earlier posts. What were you thinking for the repower? I want to do the same but just haven't had time to do the research for prices. I want a Yamaha 150 4 stroke. Just curious how much you have looked into it.

Im from Jersey too. I live in Matawan now, but am from Toms River and have cruised the Barnegat all my life. I actually had a shore house in LBI like 10 years ago. Somewhere by the Beach Haven Terrace. Anyway, welcome to the forum and glad you like your boat.

Iam going to buy a 175 e-tec , Ive only ever owned a johnson / evinrude and have never been let down in fact the motor I have on the boat now runs great and is ashame to take it off the boat, but Iam looking for a little more speed.

ps the e-tec video is very impressive.
