Hello Gents,
sorry to inform you the spectras SOLD...I'm the new proud owner... ;D :D The colors are painted on.The pictures don't show the true condition...The hull will need refinished. question #1 can the hull be painted or gel coated??? Thanks...what is your opinion on the old spectras this is my first jet and will be asking lots of questions...Thanks
-
If the boat has been painted, I'd stick with repainting. Otherwise you have to make sure you remove every little last piece of paint so the gel will stick to the underlying fiberglass matrix.
-
Ok,Thanks, some of the colors are painted the white is gel...I'm going to change the color scheme...
-
Wetsand before. You might not need to re-gel. The Painted stripes will defently cone off with 800 grit wetsand. Call me if you need info 562.544.4732 Mark

Great Buy!! The old Spectras are great boats. They are laid up heavy, very strong. I might be bias because I have one but, I did alot of research In the 3 years I looked for one. They are one of the boats to have in this world. Congrats!!! Good to have a another Spectra owner on the site. Hope to see it at one of the gatherings.

Now thats a deal! I have been looking for one for about a year now, The cool thing about the 73 is it is a full stringer Spectra. :)

Stringers are the wood that runs along the bottom of the boat on the inside, that the motor mounts to.In the early years full stringers were put in, which would be along the bottom of the whole boat. My friend has a 77 Spectra 20 Jet and the stringers stop after the motor. Which is kind of nice because there is alot of space under the bow.These boats are laid up heavy so there has never been a big deal about full stringers or not. Full stringers make you feel better about runnin it hard. All the V-Drives have full stringers to mount all the hardware. Great Boat, Bitchin Deal!!! Enjoy!!
-
Funny, because our Spectra 20 had four full lenth stringers all the way to the bow, that thing was built like a brick shithouse. Heavy too...I'll see if I can scare up a couple pics of that ride, that was a cool old boat.

Thanks Turbo I like the thought of extra support in the hull...I plan on putting a lil more kick in this 460... ;) so Im glad It's stout...I'm happy to here y'all think I made a good deal... ;D ;D
