3 times $27K per motor = $81k. Add 3ea new Dewald props $2500.00ea =$7500.00 Add 2ea new Vessel View 7"s $1500.00ea = $3000.00 New throttle and Shift estimate $3000.00 Steering tie bars and system Latham at least $10.000.00 Wiring and Misc $6000.00 Total so far $104,500.00

Sounds good to me! When are we starting the new thread!
As you probably have already learned I would budget another 25% as nothing goes as planned. Oh yea forgot you will need 4 new R+R setbacks that can hold those monsters also! Figure $800.00 piece powder coated to match. Another $3200.00 dollars!
Also with the fourth motor add another prop, another steering plate, Tie Bar, different throttle box. Oops there goes that 40k for the used motors!

When you sit down and really think about doing a project, adrenaline can sometimes trick us into making stupid financial decisions. I know that I can count on my Skater brothers to reel me in and bring me back down to earth:
My wife thanks you too I'm sure
I'm now just going to have to turn my attention back to my pile of junk and make the best of it, Lol

Come on man you have a really nice boat. NO JUNK!
The last fact of money we all can relate to and now I am done.... Here is the equation
MONEY SPENT (Builds/Project, Ins, Fuel and Travel) Divided by Hours of Use = $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ per hour!
Love these kinds of boats!!!!!
