What's with the name calling.... Chris...
It is close to paint.. That fairing's got to go.. it will be smoked plastic (lexan?) when it's all said and done..

You will be....oh you will be The Banana Mafia is after you now.

Ack Ack!!!

Oh Oh I'm sorry Sadist, what I meant to say was, $uck My BALLS!!! (Spoken in your favorite Cartman Voice)

I didn't realize we were hiding behind our OSO code names........Pu$$y.

As far as your new boat goes, I am all for classic looks, but my vote is to keep the fairing. My boat came with smoke colored plexi windshield and I switched to the fairing look and I like it much better.

It is what ever you want though.....

Ya you tell him dog He probably doesn't know anything about Motors either.

Buzz,
I know enough about "motors" to know they're electric... and enough about engines to know they rely on air fuel and fire.
I'm starting to make some progress, I need to run to the marine sore and pick up some epoxy tomorrow so I can plug up all the existing holes in the hull deck joint..
Whats the best stuff to use in rebedding the hull deck joint.. I was thinking 5200, or the butyl tape that was used alot in this application, and seems to last 30+ years.. but it's not as gnarley as the 5200....
Later fella's ...

play nice...

You might want to consider cutting out the "side pockets" in that engine compartment for more room - my buddy's been threatning to do it to his for years - cusses every time he's gotta work on it - all the 20'ers didn't have them, much, much nicer without.

Someone on here also has a 540/bravo combo that runs 85 or so.

Grab handles - make sure everybodys got some!!

'cause those boats can handle more @#%* than most people can!!

Good thought on the side pockets.. Thanks for the thought.. What kind of steering / tabs is your buddy running??
