I finally got the engine compartment looking like it should. The factory center support was a really weak aluminum c-channel that they further weakened by cutting out clearance for a throttle cable and a header. This allowed enough flex that the acrylic mirror under the port hatch contacted a header and melted. So, I had some custom brackets fabricated and used a 1X2" steel beam which clears everything and is far stronger. Then, I pulled the driveshaft cover and repainted it with bedliner for traction. The mirrors were replaced with diamond plate. Finally, I swapped out the corroded battery boxes for some nice billet pieces. Next up, it heads to the painter at the end of the month. I'm excited!

Since the classified ad no longer exists, here's the before pic of the boat. Hopefully, about a month from now, I'll be able to post the after pic.
