here is the project i picked up about two months ago.the boat was sitting outside uncovered, it is a copy of a youngblood,as of right now i have built the engine,had the stringers replaced and some other wood inside, put new steering in it, installed a new dominator pump with a droop,and nozzle. I just ordered a set of seats from luckie stiff ,which should be delivered in a couple weeks.

lots of potential there, i like the gullwing hulls, if i am not mistaken i saw this for sale awhile back and the price was pretty decent
-
also the carpet is history,the interior has been gelcoated with red splatter paint.oh and if anyone needs a set of the 18" buckets let me know they are forsale,i can't fit in them. ::)

yeah it was for sale on craigslist, and on racingjunk also, i was real surprised to find it still available when i was ready to pick one up. pretty oxidized,we are gonna try and buff it out,but we aren't counting on it. If I like it we will put a paint job on it,and maybe do a setback pump.interior should be completely done next month,the tweed seats are gonna look great in the boat!

That's a very cool project. What's it got for power?
-
mild bbc for now, probably only about 400 hp,it will be more of a family cruiser than a racer :sly:

That pump looks like its been setback already

maybe i'm not really familiar with the gullwings,the distance from the back to the back of the engine is 21",I had two pickleforks before this one,and both of them had major set backs done to them,I'm not used to having room between the engine and the boat.
