Thumbs up N I C E !!!

The engines and drives looks totally cool. I can't wait to see the boat also. My 39 has 900's and ASD8 but has a boring paint job on the boat. Too many other projects going on, mostly interior and cockpit. I hope we can do something so we can get all of the Ocean Express's together somehow to party and show off the toys.

Pure Adrenalin project

This rebuild is well into the second year and 50th tear.


The hull was totally stripped has been in the paint shop for over one year.

The upholstery for the cockpit has all been refinished and ready to install. Almost every piece of metal on the boat has been powder coated with exception of the drives themselves.

The cabin has to be refinished, new stereo system, recessed running lights, new gauges, props, etc, etc.

Hoping to have it in the water by May and do a few poker runs.
