Boats For Sale / Re: 76 southwind cruiser
« on: Today at 04:24:48 am »
Thanks, yea it's a miracle I got my head above water again and can keep my toys. I knew all about going broke owning boats but I never expected I would go broke working on and building $180k+ boats, the hvac industry is MUCH more lucrative and rewarding.

Boats For Sale / 76 southwind cruiser
« on: November 12, 2022, 10:31:20 am »
Selling my baby... hurts but recent developments force me to sell.
472 BBF (50 HRS.)fully Rebuilt with forged internals - crank. Have all the paperwork and receipts.
Fully rebuilt pump with powder coat 12jc- a imp.
Intake powder coated and reset to hull.
Interior in great condition, hull shows some stress cracks and small imperfections but look great for its age and use. New trailer tires and bearings, trailer could use paint, bunks are still good.
I have over 8k invested in her and countless time and effort. I'm realistic on the value of these old labors of love,, ive enjoyed it for a couple years so just trying to get back what I can. I'll post more detailed pictures of the motor pump hull and interior when I get home.

Arcade / Re: Belgian malinois needs rescue
« on: November 04, 2022, 06:31:44 am »Great job. Thank you. Did you keep them with your dogs while you had them? How did they do?Thanks! It's only right, dogs have been such a huge contribution to my life. We have a split backyard so they were opposite each other but they seemed good thru the fence, might have to redesign the property to house more dogs at times because there is alot of them being abandoned near me right now.

Update: a very cool lady who runs a animal shelter and foster care for all types of animals took them both in and they have a meeting with a two inland empire agencies this week to see if they could be accepted for service work.

Arcade / Belgian malinois needs rescue
« on: October 31, 2022, 07:54:36 pm »
Giving this a long shot but this 1-2 year old male belgian malinois and his female pup ran into my yard Friday morning and the asshole owners down the street from me don't want them anymore I already have 3 dogs 4 cats and a bunny, I really need a good home for the male at least as I have all females. He is super sweet and well behaved just needs a good friend for a new owner, I've given both of them deworming treatments and parvo shots. Anyone who can please help out it would be much appreciated.

I/O's / Advantage 22pcat/ Cobra touch
« on: July 16, 2022, 09:22:51 pm »
Pretty much what my weekend looks like, everybody hears Cobra and thinks I can work on their OMC..good thing I don't mind picking up what others won't but I'll tell you pulling this 7.4 out of this 22 party cat was a little tricky, had to recruit a youngster to remove the starter hot and motor mount bolts on one side it was crazy tight down there. Going to be installing a brand new 7.4, rebuild and seal bravo 3 w/2 inch spacer as well as a bunch of other things that need to be replaced. Sorry for all the prop shit but nobody ever calls me to work on their

Badass boat, always been intrigued by those and the trihaul jets just as something different. You definitely don't see these everyday I think there is one other red one with white interior for sale in needles or parker.

Just another day in the snake pit, getting this jet unit and intake all sealed up so the bilge pump can have a break once in a while.

So pulled up to the cove yesterday and finally another built southwind cruiser! That Hallett 270 was completely rebuilt by yours truly(7.4L w/bravo 3, trim tabs, swim deck, new engine hatch+upholstery) the best part is that he is happy with it and enjoying it.

The No Wake Zone / Re: No Clue
« on: June 19, 2022, 09:46:25 pm »
Literally Just fixed a dudes ultra with a bravo that ran thru the sand bar coming out of the cove, said he shut it down as soon as it hit but who knows, either way the imp housing was completely destroyed and probably spent a couple hours flushing the system back and forth clearing out a bunch of pebbles and small rocks. If an in/out with those small intake holes could pick all that up I could imagine what a jet would do

Gelcoat / Paint / Fireberglass Repair / Re: 75 Hallett Finerglass tanks - how bad is it?
« on: June 19, 2022, 09:41:24 pm »
When I first got my boat both saddle tanks were loose and had separated from the fiberglass, as well as the pick up tubes being rotted and a bunch of shit in the tanks. Probably took me a whole day to remove everything clean it all out and reinstall and secure not too hard.
