Hi everybody I just joined the site today, but have spent a bunch of time on here reading all kinds of posts and information. I just bought my first boat yesterday and felt I had to join now... Here is my 18 ft. 1984 Sleek Craft with a 454 BBC and Berkeley 12JC..I hope I don't annoy you guys too much because I'm gonna need a ton of advice...thanks[attachimg=#]

Thanks! Its my little project...The guy I bought it off of was pretty much the original owner. He was shaking so bad when signing the paper work his lady had to tell him to breathe. He said it was like givin away one of his kids. He has called me constantly, almost told him the boat blew off the trailer on the drive home, but I couldn't do that to him :) Its going to be addicting

Hey! I resemble that remark! ;D ;D
I guess your boat disproves my theory that all Sleekcraft Rebels resemble livestock!
Welcome, nice to see what mine prolly used to look like, lol

Oh, and I have at least one of the upholstered end panels for your seats (beside the engine cover), might have 'em both, don't remember. and they're white too if I can find them.

JY84Sleek, you still out there? Was kinda looking forward to some pics of the thing in the water!

My camera has taken crap...sorry :-\...but I have purchased a new one and will have pix on the water soon. Jared

nice boat looks good
-
Thanks guys. She looks good in pictures, but up close in person she is a project. For the time being its just pure fun ;D
-
sweet ride
-
Looks like you had a great day, How'd it run? What happened to the engine cover?
-
Its always a great day when you can get out on the water. I've found that I'm liking the sunday's at the river better than saturday's...less crazies around and more space to play ;D. I'm happy with the boat, but do have a lot of work ahead of me to get it where I want it. As for the engine cover..I feel the motor breathes better now with it off. Plus I like the sound of chebbie power :thumbup:
-
Then send me the engine cover! ;D Will look cool painted like a cow!
