Just finishing up de rigging. Now comes the fun part.
Parts are beginning to arrive. Broke it up into three area's
Bow, cockpit, engine bay. The bow is pretty much done. Pressure washed, new bilge pumps hoses, lights, wiring.
Cockpit, seats removed floor pulled fuel bladders removed. Were in the process of refinishing the fuel bladder area's. Will reinstall with all new hoses. Going to reupholster the seats and rebuild the seat shocks.

No it was in pretty good condition, but being 11 years old ready for some upgrades. A lot of what I'm doing is my ocd kicking in. While I have it apart I will replace all bilge pumps, hoses, new blowers, all new hoses and lines. the boat only had 330ish hours on it. I always wanted a Six drive poker run, We have new M series transoms coming with new dry sump sixes. going to run the velvet drive trans.

I can't wait to see how this turns out. Did you just buy the boat recently?

Maybe you will want to sell it when you are finished.

No the fuel bladders were new last year, I wanted to replace fill hoses and just basically go through the whole boat. I have to plumb in my return lines. Not really a big deal to pull them. Now I will have peace of mind knowing what everything is.

Bought the boat about 3 months ago. Ya I'm kinda excited too. No don't think I will want to sell it, the more I work on it the better I like it. These are really well thought out and constructed boats.
