Jim,

Yes! I did it. I will give you a shout sometime this week, we still need to do a sea trial but I feel everything should be a go. Thanks again for all the help and input!

No sh!t, that was you?? I saw you and Ray going over the boat on Sunday. My garage was the one right behind you, we were in there screwing around with my golf cart project. Gonna miss that thing sitting back there.

Yup that was me!

I think I saw you guys through your garage window?

That poor boat needs some water time, I am sure to give it a new home!

Iīd love to get hold of the genuine gauges too although they should be ordinary Merc gauges from one of the series they made.
The camera boat is in good use in one of the episodes where they are on a stakout in a boatshed.

Yes I would also like to see more of these plaques up close.
Apparently the TV-company added these plaques to boost the prices in the auction.
I was told that my boat was one of the boats they used for promotion (Boat shows ect....) but not in the show
not sure if that was true

The gauges were Medallion Industries

I replaced all of mine with new ones from the manufacturer back in the early nineties
company is now called Kysor Medallion
Still the coolest boat i ever owned

Good deal Randy,

We sea striled the boat last fall and all went well save a guage or two inop. no important ones tough. Boat runs about 70 GPS mph. Faster than when new.

Talk to you later

Jim

When you come back for the sea trial I'll bring the beer

Ray and his dad have always taken really good care of that boat, but it has done a lot of sitting for the past couple of years. I have always figured at some point the time and price would work out and I'd pick it up. Guess not now. If you were down by our community marina my Formula and Old School's Cig are parked right next to each other.
