All the white on it was repainted from a beige color and he had all the vinyl redone but nothing was together. Everything that was touching the white was either missing or off. All the wiring was hanging out of the dash. Everything that is red on it I did and it came without swim platforms so I had some used ones painted and then sweated through the installation hoping I didn't screw up holes in the transom (I didn't). I managed to get the last windshield Checkmate had but they didn't have a cabin door or frame so if anybody has one or knows how to make one it would be appreciated. Next years project is to replace all the black gauges with white Gaffrigs that are just waiting for spring.

Looking GREAT!

Team Ropa,

I may be able to put you in touch with a cabin door. I had and sold a 85 25 OB deck mate convincor with twin 2.4's.

I can get can get in touch with the owner and have him contact you to see if he wants to part with it.

My mate ran 60 ish with a Monty V8 and ran 75-80 with the 2.4 HP's screamin close to 8K. It was like driving a big stream

My little classic I picked up this past fall for a little toy when I do not want to take the Formula out. Great little boat, but gutted now getting some floor issues fixed, adding hydraulic steering, electric jackplate, among other things!!

73 for the third year in a row. We always want more speed but I can't complain about the consistency. lol The boat is 100% bone-stock, 12 years old, and has never been cracked open, so I can honestly say it does indeed belong in this class. I believe a .030-over rebuild would be considered a mod and put a boat in the Modified engine class.

I'm the NV2S2 champion for 2009, 2010, and 2011 by default since nobody else has shown up to race this class for the last three years. But it's all good... the event is a great to participate in and it's for a good cause. Racing bikes was work, this is all fun. :drink:
