I think the dash project is a go...
 

...showed the boat to a guy today and as I was looking at it, I am really not happy with the way the helm panel and gauges have aged. So I think I'm a'gonna change the gauges and refinish the panels over the fall/winter. Anyone know if Dana Marine is on the board? Want to see if they'll work a deal on Beede gauges; want to compare prices with Trick and other suppliers - I only want it to *look* like a million bucks! :D

Re: I think the dash project is a go...
 

They are on OSO. I've been very please with the ones I purchased. The white faces with the satinless bezels look very nice. I do need to monkey with my fuel sending unit as the fuel gauge reads full at 3/4 now. Makes me feel like I'm getting some real good milage with that thing sitting on full for so long. :D I don't think you'll find a better value.

That's what I've been trying to tell *you* about my boat! :D :D :D

Re: I think the dash project is a go...
 

Why not upgrade to the Livorsi gauges?

Re: I think the dash project is a go...
 

I know. It's those old gauges that bother me.... :eek: :eek: :D
Just kidding. We're just not sure what direction we'll go. I have a guy that want's my boat so when we're ready it should be a fairly easy move. With PQ gone I'm just not sure what we'll do..

Re: I think the dash project is a go...
 

Well I've got my eye on a new boat, so if you're looking to move let me know. Had a guy look at it over the weekend, but you know how that goes... doesn't cost anything to look.

PS, I'll even deliver it for you so you don't hurt that wimpy Jap truck you've got! :evilb: :D :eek:

Hi, thanks for considering Dana Marine Products. The Beede line is priced extremely well compared to others. They're a great quality gauge. I sell alot of them, and have a great satisfaction level with our customers. We do have some other nice incentives, $150.00 online purchases get free UPS ground shipping. Spend $250.00 we'll throw in the shipping and a T Shirt. You can see them online @ www.danamarineproducts.com or you can let me know what gauges you need and I'll work up a quote. Thanks again, and I look forward to hearing from you.
Bob @ Dana Marine

Ouch!! :eek: :eek: Lets not forget 305 ponies under the hood of the Jap.
By the way what are you looking at?

Re: I think the dash project is a go...
 

Don't forget about Hardin Marine as well. I love mine.

Yo Dockrocker.....
Here's what i did with the old panels & gauges on my PQ! Painted by PQ paint shop (Rick Gemmill rocks!), when they were open and splashed the gauges with bezels from Livoris! :D My old gauge's were in great shape so i just kept them. Just a teaser at what ur throwing around for idea's from Santa! :rolleyes: Good luck with ur new "bling"! :drink:
john

ps. I know the steering wheel gosta go! It's next! haha :eek:

Re: I think the dash project is a go...
 

John that looks great. By the way what did Rick charge you? He did some interior work for me before they closed at a great price to boot.

Re: I think the dash project is a go...
 

Check my post in the tech forum for info on the steering wheel - better check with the doc for blood pressure medicine before you start that project!! :mad:

305 hp, :p It's all about the torque, baby! 450 lbs/ft out of my gasser...

Re: I think the dash project is a go...
 

379 lbs/ft stock. Better than my F-150.

Re: I think the dash project is a go...
 

Doc, can you e-mail more pics on your boat? Also is that a pink or red stripe on the side. The photo's make it tough to tell. Also carbs or efi's??

Send the pics to my office e-mail, more is better!

Thanks Brian

Fast forward,
$300.00 plus the new toggle covers! :D
He even molded a brand new anchor hatch for me when the old one rotted away on the hinge side! Talk about CUSTOMER SERVICE the rocks! Man, i hope they get'r 2gether sooner the better. Us PQ guys are dying out here with no service! :eek:

Re: I think the dash project is a go...
 

I will..........heh,heh, yeah torque! :evilb:

Re: I think the dash project is a go...
 

If they don't get something going soon I maybe looking at a Baja 29 Outlaw :eek: :eek: :eek:

I do miss the guys and gals at PQ, they certainly had top notch customer service. And Rick was first class and a real asset.

Re: I think the dash project is a go...
 

Fast Forward,
Don't buy a Baja just because the factory is out right now. Doc's Powerquest is a lot better than a 29 Outlaw.

Re: I think the dash project is a go...
 

And I didn't even pay him to say that! :)

Oh the preasure.... :D
