I'd hate to fill it up with gas, but it would be cool to see restored.

(and an air conditioned pilothouse so its fat guy friendly)

How about instead double outdrives coupled to a single diesel via jackshaft and a Geared Up Systems coupler? Must admit thats a nice rig. I know i couldn't afford to fill it up.

Kracker needs to pick that big girl up, rip her top off and convert her to an express 30. Perverts.
