OK, 24 long days later, It is back in the water.
As you can see I have been too busy to post anything.
New wiring
New Switches
New Batteries, boxes
New Bilge pump, hose
New Deck Drains and hoses
New motor well drains
New Seat
New Gauges
New under the gunnel rod boxes
New fuel and oil lines, filters
Motor re-painted..decals
everything re-fastened..the correct way.
Bottom paint removed, and re-painted.
Extensive cleaning..waxing
Got more to do... Here some before and after.





Door was all broken..but I had the pieces.


















OK...So I got the boat for 2K on E-bay..put many many hours this last month and $2000 more into it.
By the way..if anyone is looking for the deck drain hoses..which had a elbow molded into them. There is one available at a Auto part store, that has elbows on both ends. One end is absolutely perfect..the other is good. Just cut it down the middle..fine tune the exact length you need, and your good to go. It is 1" inside diameter. If anyone needs the number..let me know, the sticker tag is still on the hose.

That old dirt bag boat you bought now looks right in place next to those shiny new ones. Excellent job!

Enjoy!
