old boat new owner
Picked up a 42' eagle.
Now third owner(I think) Hull in great shape, inside has neglect. Motors were switched to 502's a few years ago. Do not know anything about them. Hopefully pulling them in a few weeks. Will take apart and get them ready for blowers. Stripped the inside/cleaning everything else. Generator works fine and will need to do some wiring repair. Yes it needs work, bought it for a song. Knew I would rebuild motors and interior. Just hope the trs drives are fine. Trying to stay with the budget I told my wife when I bought it, Do not think that will happen:D When I really get started will show photo's of the tear down and rebuild. By spring we hope to be in water.. MAYBEE!!! 42' |

Not bad for stock 502's, weighing in over 11'000lbs fueled. Long Beach dock to Avolon dock. Said used 100+ gal fuel. Wonder what Blown motors will burn? Trying to update the boat....(looks) Any ideas??? 42' |

We need some before pics. Here's mine. Don't know who did the paint. Engines are Tyler Crockett built 500s. Interior is a little old but in really good shape.
