Well they always say bad things happen in 3's. looks like you got all of them out of the way. Now the good things will come. Good luck and post pictures of your progress.

A 2'' SHORTIE HELPED MY BOAT OUT, if I can help in any way call me I have had my 24 since 90 so I have tryed diff, motors tabs, props, seats and am also trying to put mine back together after I got broken into and lost a lot of stuff so call if you want to talk 617 833 3327, art

Well guys I finally got down to it the last couple of days....WHEW!!!! I have decided to strip the whole boat and go from ground up. I figure this way I know what I have and what my boat is capable of. So far I have come up with this list that just keeps getting longer....new paint, new engine(496), new seats (all), new interioir and different setup in cuddy, new design on rear bench seat, new sunpad/engine hatch. I think that should keep me busy for at least 6 to 9 months. If all goes well I will be ready for spring break next year!!!! WOOO HOOO!!!! Here are some pics of what I have been doing.....until we meet again......
