Here are the mockup engine vents to replace the original. They are contoured to follow the curve of the deck. The originals were to boxy and didn't fit the lines of the boat. I had the frames water jetted out of stainless and will fit perforated stainless material inside them.
. thanks Art

The original 292 engines are going to be used. They only had 170 original hours but have been completly redone. They should be close 275 to 300 hp with the mods that have been done. Not real big numbers but a big improvement above the original 200 hp stock.

[I'm a little undecided about the windshield. I've been playing around with some old school chriscraft brackets but I can't seem to find ones with the correct angle. I looked into having an original style windshield built but for the cost of a new one I think I can come up with something much better with more style. I'm shooting for a mix of the classic chris craft / garwood runabout with sleek mordern styling]
Here is the windshield that I remember on the 28' Bertram.

water jetting parts is that part of your work? or did you find a place to do it, cause I could use some brackets for my power steering /alt set up. we did some mods but, I would like to make to brackets to put my steering on other side of motor. and make a better bracket for alt.we did a new gas tank in the saber I bought 2 yrs ago and now that were testing ,I might need to put one up in the cockpit for weight. we maybe azz heavy.. thanks Art
