Default New Project!

After numerous boat restorations, the last one being a Checkmate 2800 SX Outboard, I thought I was done restoring boats….Well, I couldn’t pass on this little 1992 Nova Spyder 230 with a carbureted 454 Magnum/Bravo One on a tandem axle aluminum trailer for $1500.00!!! It’s going to need a bit of love, mostly the rear bench seat and engine hatch, but everything else is pretty solid! This will be my first I/O boat since selling my Velocity back in 1995!

That’s awesome! Giver some love and go run-er. Fuel costs shouldn’t bother you with that deal. 👍

The outdrive worth that alone!!! Nice to run across deals like that. As long as it’s solid and no rot that will be a perfect day runner..
