40 Race to Pleasure conversion
 

Since I cant sell my old race boat for crap.

I was wondering who do you guys recommend for the rebuild and any idea on the price.

I called skater he said 75-100k.

Lets hear your ideas.

Sounds about right I have just gone through this. The only way to do it for less is if you and some great friends, with time do the conversion. The whole project that I'm in not counting the boat will be 200+ when It's done (not all new parts), but I am not cutting corners. I did start with a bare hull, were you will probably use drives and power and maybe your dash so you can save 70 to 80 there. Hope that helps.

What size is your skater ? Mine is a 40.

Do you have any pics ?

I talked to Glassdave about your boat because I considered it a month or so ago. His ballpark to pleasurize it was alot less than 75-100. Just talking glass and paint not any rigging. Good luck!

Not a skater it's a 39 MTI. The same work needs to be done to either boat to get to a pleasure version no mater what brand or length.

Yahoo's is a little tuffer than most because his canopies are way out over the tunnels.

I got an Id-ear :coolcowboy:

Uncle Keith:evilb:
He aint used his sazall in awhile:party-smiley-004:

Was that a turn key price?? What was reused and what would be upgraded?? Just to go back all white Awl grip would cost 20-30K depending on hull condition.

Beginners use a sazall I like a supercharged chainsaw!! :eek:
I have converted a couple. :drink:

No paint, just to convert it.
