New project, 2000 27' world class
Recently picked up a 2000 27' world class, 454 efi low hours on the motor but the hull has alot of scrapes and dings and the interior has alot of exposure. I have left it with a company to do a color shine and buff to see how much will clean up. After I get it back I will start with cleaning up the interior and would like to add a swim platform, the bravo one outdrive has some play and have been told that the gimble may be out. I have read other threads on adding hp to the motor but don't want to loose the reliability (family boat). Also thought about hydraulic steering. Excited about the project but new to performance boating.
Would love any input.
Will add photos soon.

Re: New project, 2000 27' world class
What size motor are you running? Is the external steering needed more depending on the hp your running?

496ho, needed mostly for safety helping relieve stress on the gimbal and other outdrive parts.

Post some pics, sounds like a great boat. I'm suprised it wasn't rigged with ext. steering from the factory. Did you but the one that was in Ohio?

Did you buy yours recently? I was referring to Warlockn, I know I saw a 27 for sale in OH. Somebody from the VA. Beach area was considering buying it. I think it was on speed wake that I saw it.

Re: New project, 2000 27' world class
No Dave! I bought it out west here. I've been told I really don't need the external steering with only a 454. I would like to add some hp, any of you know the best way without loosing reliability.
Will try to post photos as soon as I can figure out how to reduce the size of the photos.
