No problem! Trailer that thing over to Ohio so we can do some interior, or canvas work and really tap into your wallet...

Great, post up some current pics when you get a chance. You might remove the spark plugs and rotate the motor over back and forth listening for the knocking. It won't be the gimble bearing, that doesn't turn w/o the drives installed. Did you run it long enough to get an oil pressure reading? That site makes it look easy. I'd have that stuff all over, except were it is supposed to be.
Don't forget to checkout www.rochfordsupply.com for all your material needs. We removed most all the screws holding the deck to the hull sides behind the rubrail today and dug out all the silicone. Going to fill the joint with 5200 tommorrow. Should make the boat solid as a rock. Feel sorry for the guy who has to work on this boat when I get rid of it.

Thanks again

Making headway I see.

Got mine all finished up Fri and hauled to the lake for the holiday. No leaks, so all must have been good.
Now just gotta sort thru all the old/extra parts and toss the junk, dump the rest.

Looks great! You may want to get a bigger trailer though, not sure if the one you have is long enough
