Pulling the entire rear seat out! Extending engine compartment by 18 inches. Replacing hatch with new extended hatch with two scoops for new KE675's and new IMCO outdrives. Putting two new McLeod electric bolsters in the cockpit making it a four man stand up boat. Completely re-rigging the entire engine compartment with all batteries and trim pumps at the front of the compartment. Taking the swim platform off and having new powercoat paint applied. Sending all the gauges back to Livorsi to have new bezels installed.
Converting Myco trailer over to goose neck fifth wheel style and adding electric over hydraulic brakes. Six new Goodyear Marathons with new five spoke wheels.
Oh, did we say BS or dreaming?
Better just save all this money and buy a new "Top Gun" and pay cash! LOL
But Baja, if you are watching, there are a few of us out here that would REALLY like to see more engine compartment room in place of Cockpit room!

Liquidate everything I own, including the Baja. Leave the family business, relocate and start a new business on my own. Too bad I don't have the nerve to actually do it. Would be way better off in the long run!
Probably just service the H2X and keep it another year.

It's about time do replace valve springs
and lifters.
I keep toying with the idea of extension boxes,
and shortie lowers.
.........Then again, a "suitable replacement"
( that my friends and my bride think that I need to own)
has been found :
Descisions.....descisions.
