Nice job, MJ.

Yeah, I've had the I/O to bracketed conversion project in my head for some time now. The pipe dream for some time now was to find a Formula F233 and convert it. (Have added the V-20 and the Chris Craft Scorpion/Lancer to possible candidates as well.) Been poking around THT, Classic Mako and Seacraft, and am reading Vaitses book on fiberglass boat repair to learn me sumpin' 'bout it. Your gallery was very helpful, too.

I know what motors cost, but what's the cash outlay for the bigger ticket items of a project like this? The bracket, obviously, say $1500-$2500 from what I gather. What else?
