Default new to me '89 272 sr-1

Im extremely happy with my new money pit!

This boat sat on a lift for 90% of its life.. literally! Only 312 hrs! Stock 454's 330hp?? bravo's and 25p mirages (non +) turning out. Whatcha think she'll go?

Only thing she needs is:
New sundeck vinyl
clean/paint drives/k-planes
trim indicator lines for drives and k-planes
tune up!

I have an electrical box in the closet on the port side that says shore power/rev polarity light/ etc etc. I looked in the compartment on the port gunwale(sp?) toward the back seat, but didn't see a chord. I also do not see an onboard charger of anysort or any loose wireing were it MIGHT have been.

and why the hell can't i post up any pictures???

Have the stripes been repainted? I notice the Formula emblems are missing on both sides

Looks nice. It has external water pick-ups, that usually indicates a TRS drive system. Is it a TRS boat? If so, are you sure they're only 330s? As I'm typing this though, I don't think 272's ever came with TRS, not enough forward engine bay room.

Whatever, I'm babbling! Must be 330s with external pick-ups, right?
