Maybe.... JUST MAYBE!!!
 

I may actually get the boat in the water this weekend. I got the drives on today. Need to trace out some wire issues with the trim, torque down the exhaust, put the belts and hoses back on and I will be good to go!! This could be the earliest I have ever been in by about 3 months :D

What did you end up getting for drives? It was originally a TRS boat, correct?

I had a pair of TRS drives on my other boat. I have Konrads that I will put on one of the two boats. I want to run this one for a bit with the TRS drives first.

Well after finding out that half of the studs that I had to put nuts on were stripped out or galled, the thing is ready to go. It was amazing however. Every time I came up to a stripped out nut the solution to repair worked exactly as I had hoped. Used a die twice and the threads lined up perfectly. Stuff like that NEVER happens to me! I had to drain out all the gas. That killed me as it was 30 gallons. :( Today it is off to the gas station to put some fule in it and then drop it in the water. Wish me luck!

Good Luck !!!!
