Arrow 630 flatdeck
 
Hello, first post! Alexander from Sweden, 23 years old, second boat-project!

Been reading here for some time now, and with my new project i have bought, maybe you will be intrested in it?
Also i buy alot of products from Usa, so maybe you could give me some hints, and help in the project further on.

The boat is a Arrow 630 (21Ft) that have been especially designed from new for race, rigged with a v8 from the beginning, and later on an volvo turbo engine. Im going back to an Csb or Cbb.
The hull is extremely strong and thick, big fuel tank laminated in the bottom of the boat etc etc.

The boat when i bought it, the transom is rotten, ofcourse :D

together in my workshop with my Terhi 400bs with an 75hp evinrude on, getting 40 knots at the moment, with to much hull in the water. Built this boat this winter.

So, would it be interesting to follow?

Wow, that's one awful transom mess. Looks like whoever did the cutouts for the exhaust didn't take too much care with their work! Good luck with your rebuild.

Yep, found lots of funny stuff when we ripped it apart.. "mechanics" have built this boat, for an example everything hade stainless hose fittings except the fuel..

Well, hat's off, that looks like some serious resto !

Alexanderlindahl 09-26-2014 10:05 AM

Thanks, yep for sure!

Picking up a CSB 350 with vortec heads next weekend, and hopefully a pair of stainless marine headers, the engine will be rebuilt and stroked to 383, aiming for 400hp.

Some more work on the boat has also been done.

Dash, sides and the wall between cockpit/front compartment. and some minor work here and there...
