Default Dueling Duals * New Pics*

Well new guy here, hey how are ya, anyway customer came into my shop and wanted to repower his boat so we started talking just wanted pretty much what he had for many years basic Yamaha 150 2-stroke. No problem what kind of boat do you have? 87 wellcraft dual console, really hmmmm don't see to many of those around, I know because I have one too. I'm just getting started on mine and his is a working boat just needs a repower. Mine well, it's another story. Its been through three Hurricanes in the last three years Katrina and Gustave hit it the worst she got washed away in Gustave coming off the trailer and filling the boat with saltwater and sludge. I have some before pics on my work computer I'll have to post those later. The owner had had enough he asked my Mechanic if he would like the boat ( they go back along way). He said no but he would take the motor (200 Suzuki). Boat was passed to me, she was in pretty sorry shape. I have cleaned her up alot but still have lots to do. Anyway My customer said that the 20' duals were rare I said what are you talking about they're giving em away round here!
