New to me boat
« on: March 25, 2021, 08:24:42 AM »
Picked up a turn key runner bottom only to find out all the fuel lines leaked, distributed clamp as upside down, flex plate was junk, starter was junk, fuel filter mount was cracked. Also the prop was cracked on both ears. Also the guy didn’t bolt the scoop down so it blew off on the way home, probably my fault should have checked that Still got a good deal and now it’s turn key.

Not a lot people selling these thing are willing to let you water test them because they are a little sketchy to drive. We had everything fixed in a week. We have big plans for the boat

Got the bottom dialed in, time for the top. We decided to completely re-gel the whole boat with help from Steve at Superior fiberglass
