The cabin is totally finished. The cushions have never been sat on. It’s a time capsule of 1986😁😁

I would like to see it as well as ours doesn’t have a cabin and I’d like to see what we’re missing.

That's spectacular! I wish our's was easier to get into. All we have is a pad as that's where the front fuel tank is.

A couple photos from a couple weeks ago...first time in water in over 12 years. Motors are running great after having the fuel injectors cleaned and tuned by Brucato FIS, clean and serviced all fuel pumps, new fuel lines, new everything... have some issues to tend to regarding leaking old seals on trim tab rams, leaking engine trim pumps....misc stuff. Over all boat ran great. Very cool little hotrod.
