Mine's stuck on a lift at LOTO until the water level comes up. Looks like mid April at the earliest. Then it's buff, stereo and impeller time. And trailer work first to get it home.

This is my first season starting "fresh" with my boat. I purchased it last July. This weekend I've been working on repairing some rotted wood and a crack in the glass on my engine hatch. When its warm enough to pull out of storage it needs a buff, new brakes on the trailer, a set of plugs and a new snap on cockpit cover.

Mine is in peices. Glassdave is doing the transom/stringers right now. I just pulled the engines apart today. Going to do a refresh and change over to a different efi. Need to rebuild one of my drives.

New gauges, dash, stereo, subs, amp, wheel, seats, vinyl, carpet, bilge update, rebuilt engines, added superchargers, new props, trailer tires, lights, brakes, one new axle.

The list is getting smaller.

Still to be done:

Install engines, test drive, enjoy!

This 50 deg. weather is exciting!!

Had a new floor put in around Oct/Nov and had the guy paint the floor white also. Well... 3.5 months later the paint hasn't dried completely... WTF!!! Started stripping it today and when it gets a little warmer Ill repaint it in better conditions. It got just too cold I guess when he painted it...

Motor will be done 3 weeks, upholstery done just need to install, and build new bench structure. oh... and new carpet too.
