Ok, not trying to screw up your post, but the water lines on that engine will not work long. The boat is pretty rough, but for the right price somone could bring it back to life. I cannot believe somone would put bottom paint on a performance boat.

you are correct sir , the water lines from the t-stat to the manifolds were just temporary for starting on the ground , they are not meant to be on there for the finished product
i like clear lines on the ground so i can see if any scale is flowing out of the block , and none was

as for the bottem paint part , its never been bottem painted that i can tell , there is a lil scum line that will clean off , but the pictures must be misleading , came from checkmate with the red gelcoat bottem

lil more info about the boat , it has shore power , lcd tv , dvd player and dual bank onboard battery charger

looking for 5k for the boat and trailer , or 7500 for the package with the engine

and for 8k i even throw in a kick butt kruz-n-kool air conditioner , not the on the hatch kind , but a suitcase that has a real air conditioner in it , with lines that go overboard to take in cool water and get rid of hot water , they havent made em in years

Hey Matt,
How you been doing, just wondering if you might be interested in selling the bolster seats and if not maybe taking a couple close up pics of the seats (the drop down portion) Almost got the 2800 ready for paint had to replace transom floor and stringers (bad rot) but coming along nicely also had the entire bottom gelcoated ice white
Later
Ben
