I would think you could do it by selling your inboard stuff and paying for the bracket and glass work. New and used brackets are everywhere for less than 2000.00 . The angle on your transom is 17degrees so remember that when shopping for one,(armstrong and stainless marine are the better ones). 3000 in glass work to move the seat and knee the transom and close it in. Remember now your dash needs to be reworked to accept the o/b gauges, and a couple of other rigging problems that you need to take care of. Powerplays 33's open fish boats with twin o/b's have a hard time breaking the 70 mph mark.

NKOSI,
I have a deal for you. The price you were quoted on the white boat remains the same and the February ALLSTAR Marine stimulus package for you which is we will split the shipping cost for you. Now that is a deal.

ALLSTAR Marine

The best a 33 sport deck with 300's ran was 72

nkosi, Where are you located ? What motors are you thinking of using ? How do you intend to use your boat ? On my boat I left the engine room as is, I call it my garage,plenty of storage room. I installed 2-32 gal. gas tanks under a floor. I'll try to post pictures. Michael "HIGH LIFE"

Thanks High Life. What kind of boat was it? How much did it cost? Pictures would be great. I am in the Virgin Islands. Boat is being used for pleasure...a little fishing and running around the islands.
