I was going to restore the top deck, which would have involved new white gelcoat, but it would not have looked any different. I talked to Froberg and he said the cracks around the fairing will come back so not really a priority now. If I have time I'm going to do a deep buffing/color restorer and replace those cover snaps as the salt water has taken a toll on them. I'll be real happy if I can just get it running.

Everything, LOL not sure that will ever happen. Always something with these old boats.

If I could sell these 454 blocks I could be in the water by May.

I've got some progress pics on my thread in the apache section.

And i think we're getting a 2008 F-450.

My cousin will use the lift for his Cafe Racer for the Cigarette will not stay in the water over night. Maybe everyone once in awhile we will put it on the lift.

Yea we will be down to run the Cafe and Firefox in a couple weeks.

Might take the Sea Ray out this Saturday.
