Really beautiful, the teak interior boats are in a class of their own.

We need engine room and transom pics

Thank you! The teak really is great. It will be staying. When I replace the floor in there, I will most likely add a small step down from the cockpit and some accent lighting along the bottom to illuminate the floor at night.
These are the best pictures I have of transom and engine bay. Engine bay is huge! Lots of room to stand in there and work on stuff. The forward section will be great for storage of fenders etc.

Huge is a understatement it looks like you could keep a spare set of motors in the front section.

What are you going to do for drives? I've got both a nice set of 4's and 5's, if that is the direction your going to head towards.

Either way, that is going to be a great boat when you get it finished.

I am thinking of putting speedmaster 3s back on if i can. Going down to the marina shortly to speak with the original owner. He might still have the drives. I know he has the motors for it, as they are supposed to be going into his son's 39' Competition but maybe he will sell them to me come next season once I have the cash.

Not many updates as I work 6 days a week, but it will all be worth it once the boat is sitting in the water!
This weekend I am pulling her over to the boat yard for the winter and will be doing some more cleaning as long as the weather holds up.

Looks great! Going to be a cool looking boat once your finished. Have you gave any thought to a swim platform on the back yet? If you need one, let me know.

It would be a nice touch and make easy access climbing in and out of water coming up a ladder rather than stepping on the drive.

Thanks! And possibly, I havent given it any thought, but I will keep it in mind.

The Squadron is a neat boat for sure! Feels bigger than 39' honestly. I am going to use the space on either side of the fuel tank for extra storage of fenders etc.
