Sean, thanks for pointing that out.
And, YES, I want participation from the previous owners in this thread. The boat has history, although, be it not racing, but all the owners for the past 18 or so years are active members here. Amongst us all there is alot of knowledge on this particular hull. There is no reason not to document the history here on OSO.

Boat will be nice when finished...good luck with the project, looking great so far!

Thanks Nick.
Not that it was bad before, but she was showing her age.
I knew what I had in mind before I even left my house to pick her up. I just didn't tell my wife

Wive's only need a little information.

Otherwise, this "project" would have been shot down from day one.

Actually, she's cool with it all.

Hey, can you e-mail me the full -size pic of your av?? It's a great shot of the boat.

Did that boat originally come from Lake George?If so, i remember going for the first ride after we built the 540. I was thinking "Damn, this is cool"

Yes it was a Lake George boat but it never had a 540 in it the 509 was plenty good

Looks just like Angelos 24 he had on the lake with a 540. Ran 80, scared the chit out of him

Sure.

first let me say congrats on the purchase and the work looks great.........Now second i will say it is about time...Take lots of pics
