Which Engine Hoist are you refering to? The one I have to install engines is a home made unit I fabricated. I added the roof to keep the electric hoist dry and it actually provides shade when installing the engines. It would be nice to have a big shop with an overhead crane, but then I couldnt afford the boat. I didnt really have any drawings, just built it.
Come on First Gun give us the story on the boat. A little History. Wasnt it a Boat Show feature Boat? In 1986? 87? Where?What was the original Power?
Sean, come by the Gallion this year.

I am looking at having one built myself. I want to use it at my storage place/ workshop. I want to be able to take it apart, in case I ever switch facilities.

The boat was barely finished in time for the Ft.Lauderdale Boat Show Oct. 1986 where it was featured,then it was trucked up to the New York Boat Show and sold in Nov. 86' . She originally had 420hp mercs/trs set ups. white with blue/gold striping and was sold to the first owner for $117k

Anymore history? That is a neat project and a very special boat so glad to see it being brought back. Please keep us posted on its progress . Sure seems that there should be posters or some promo stuff out there on it some where.
