Sounds a bit on the high side for top end, but as long as she's not over-revvin' at top speed all I can say is CONGRATULATIONS!!...

Was your floor in that good shape...and I'm curious about the screw pattern in the center of the gas-tank hatch-lid...

those 5 screws are unusual. Must be some support added under the hatch?

...and 84 IS the best year!

Looks great!

There are supports under the hatch where the screws are.

The boat was in good shape when I got it,the floor and transom solid so I didn't have to do any major work. It was a mess I did restore the hull gel coat to bring back the shine also restored all the teak.The rod boxes I took out and cleaned them up.I got my bimini and new boat cover from a local shop here in Utah.The top is great made of sunbrella.This is a great site with lots of good people that can help and have done major restoration jobs and have posted pics of there work,just ask what you want to do to your boat and someone will help.Good luck in your project and post pics.
