|
l set guys. talked to donnie. thanks for the help
|
Any more pics or video of this boat. I love to see older OL's with new paint.
|
That's Let's Rock's previous ride.
|
That was my buddies boat before he sold it to Donnie, it's a nice boat!
|
Never saw this boat before. Its really cool, more pix pls
|
I've got some pics of the remake somewhere from when Dave updated "Lets Rock". They did alot of work on that boat and even faired the windscreen to make it look like a new OL. It is first class.
|
Donnie is a friend and a great guy and updating the boat since he bought it, it really is a nice boat...

Beautiful boat
|
That was a fast boat in its heyday! Not saying it isn't now . Looks amazing
|
I gotta hand it to someone who can take such a well known, cool themed boat and redo it. It's beautiful now as well, but I don't think I could have brought myself to do it. I absolutely love the redone historical themed Apaches. And I like that I'm like that. Saves me a TON of money :)
|
I don't know if I could either,but after someone spent all the money on the fairing and paint work it was easy to keep going to make it as nice as I can.
|
It is a bad ass boat, then and now. Very nice update...

It's great to see what people do and the creativity in the updating. taking an older, solid, great designed hull and keeping it looking as new after 10,15,20,25 years is so neat to see. Those 37 OL are great hulls to work from. Yours does look awesome, though. |
Aren't those 900 Gellner's in there?
|
They were supposed to be. They were not done well at recent rebuild, so I pulled them and going thru to fix correctly.
|
Not done well by Gellner? and I actually prefer the new paint to the old paint by a lot. Looks Great. Congrats
|
Apparently Gellner but don't know what customer told him to do? Have to make it right anyway. Blew oil out valve covers like no rings in it.

Those motors originally started out as Merc 900s. Unless they have been changed they have been apart numerous times for one reason or another. Best of luck getting them rebuilt.
|
Previous owner tried 5 blades and said it lifted stern too much and was dangerous over 90. I will try more and probably talk to you when I get that far. The engines were 900mercs. Had a few things changed, but they would have decreased power. All in the works now to be fixed and hopefully get the performance back out of it.
