I picked up this '83 Speedster back in August, just now getting around to posting pics. I hope the links work since photo bucket decided to charge now....

Thank you, it's a gas and go boat 75mph gps boat. Its my warm weather "commuter" boat into work on Fridays into Washington DC. It has small stuff thats going to tweaked during the off season, and it needs a good interior cleaning.

Tell me about it. Are you turning a 26 or 28 B1? Mine really likes the left handed prop. Your X looks like it is up there. Is that a shortened lower? From the transom assembly placement, it looks like maybe an 18" X Dimension.

I'd have to measure the X dimension this weekend to know for sure. The GPS'd 75mph is with a 28P B1, I also have a 26P that's also a right hand, haven't used it, taking up space on the kitchen floor.
