RV, Ill help you out any way I can. When I had it the oil was changed every 10 hrs and a filter change every other time. There is a quick oil change with hose adapter, 2 primer and pump out switches (black) by bottom of dash. Drive oil was changed every 25 hours. Call me if you need anything, I KNOW you will take care of her, good luck. Jeff

Jeff why did the second owner only have it a few months? That is a awesome boat and I know I would not get rid of it that quick.

rv are you taking it to LOTO for the shootout?
Congrats on your new ride it is a beautiful boat. :D

Re: Xcess Wetness In Chicago
 

He had the boat from March till now. I sold it with 63 hours and I believe it has 135hrs on it now. So in 6 mos he put on 65 hours. I talked with TMP yesterday they said the boat was too big for him to take care of properly by himself, looking for something smaller, and just wanted to have it sold before winter, and will look in the spring.

Re: Xcess Wetness In Chicago
 

Everyone,
Thanks for the congrads, I appreciate it.

As Jeff said the previous owner has his hands full with running a business, family and land deals to the point of not having any free time. As we all know, boat up keep/maintance doesn't happen in 5-10minutes.

It has TMP 750's n/a efi engines.

Boomer, I have seen your 40 Hustler in the shed and in the harbor before. That is a nice boat. Feel free to stop by and check it out, no problem on the ride.

Jeff, I appreciate your offer and yes I will be calling some more. If you have any pictures during the construction I would love to see them. I would like see were somethings are placed in the hull for future reference, i.e. tanks, fuel, water, waste, stringers under the floor, etc.

No Loto this summer but we may do a trip for Memorial day next year.

Paul, yes we do need to hook up. With all we have been through together I think we can finish off at least one or two with our war stories. You and Lisa are welcome anytime. I don't think we will be doing Ft Lauderdale this fall but you never know.

I have already talked to TNT about checking out the drives and repainting this winter.

Wow...nice buy there RV! Have fun with it :D

Re: Xcess Wetness In Chicago
 

I'll stop by next time I see you! I only wish that the person that owned our Hustler before us took as good of care of the boat as Jeff did... lots to do to get it in better shape. I wish I could keep the boat closer, so that I could work on it in the evenings. Oh well.

I could hide out on that thing and you'll never find me. :rolleyes:
