Title: 1979 Hawaiian
Post by: BOOST on April 20, 2008, 08:00:27 PM: Here are some pics of my pop's boat. We worked on it all weekend got the steering wheel, cable, gauges and rewired the boat. Had the tanks hot dipped and installed, mocked up the plumming for the steel braided lines. The motor is on deck ready to go. I'll post pics of the motor as soon as I can.
