Glad to have you as a member Kenny. Nice looking boat.
BTW knowing your dad do you think he'll give you h&ll for the trailer light wires hanging like that.

Welcome to the fray!!...hope you like it here and we look forward to seeing the progress on your 17...there are several of those here, so you'll be right at home...

The good news is you got a great starter boat..appears somebody took good care of it all these years...you'll enjoy using it once you splash it!!

The bad news is your old man set the bar right HIGH for you...his DC and that sweet Etec are a tuff-to-beat combo...we just wish he'd clean the damn thing up every now and then...criminal how he neglects it that way...

Keep us posted on what you do and if you need any opinions just holler...there are plenty of those around here...

Started eliminating some of the wiring that has built up in it over the last 37 years and after trying to locate where things came from and where they were going I just decided to gut it and re-wire it myself. It will give me some piece of mind, I also removed and tossed all the fuel hoses, I might as well go the extra mile now.
