Awesome, Pat. That hull is rock solid and runs very well. Give me a call if you need anything.

Our 5 year old son and I were crawling all over it this afternoon. It's going to be a great boat for us.
I'm sure I'll be calling for help Rick.
Thank you...

Thanks Rick, I will be calling for your to do list.

How about a prop with my 502Mag?
I'm guessing a 26p B1, left or right?

I finally found some time to work on the boat.
Here are a few shots from my camera phone.
As you can see, we dropped in a big hunk of cast iron.

A few more shots.
It was the first time the marina's new toy got used.
I take some better pics with a real camera when I drag her home to finish the job.

Rick if you're out there, I've got lots of questions where all of these wires go...

I was wondering where this thread went too, Looks like you have her going your way Pat. Won't be long now. Good luck with those wires. VV

Wow. Looks great Pat. Give me a call. They were labeled, but I have pics to help you. I don't know who does the rigging for Velocity, but they had wires everywhere. It's wired exactly the same as a standard 502. Pull the wiring schematic from Mercruiser and match the wire color to each sender.
