I have certified weight documents showing the boat light on fuel with cabin interior out at 7560 lbs.
I still have complete cabin and all teak trim stored in shop. I can install or not. I never cared enough to install it.
I hope to test the props BBlades worked for me in November. They are said to be 15.25 x 27.5.
Shoulder surgery is a bitch. It makes me crazy that props have been waiting since spring to test.
Also have powerboat test from '86 in my paperwork too. I have the report shown earlier in thread page 8.

Cool. I know this has been on your list and on your mind for a while. Hopefully it's been comfortable working with the new shoulder.
-
The only good part of working on trailers is the part when its completed. I'm looking forward to that part.

After boating all my life and driving numerous race boats I share the joy in Lucky, I seldom drive; I enjoy throttling for my friends. Most days everyone in the boat drives. I only operate around the docks.

David drove this Fun run to Big Ricks and back. We put about 131 hard miles on her that day. Can just barely make out the 10 at the end of the row.

Not many pleasure boats are set up this way. This allows either one or two operators like in race pleasure set ups. Most boat rides the owner shuttles everyone around.
This allows to as I like to say Share the Joy of boating better.

All running gear replaced and painted. Springs, axles, brakes, hubs and drums.

After a busy few months I've finally completed cabin. Many years ago I pulled cabin, cleaned and stored it. I repaired with coosa, s glass , kevlar and epoxy the forward structure that was damaged by a water leaking into the area typically called an anchor locker. That work was shown many pages earlier in this thread. I never really cared about a cabin and never took the time to complete until now.
Here are some pix. Yes, I know the speaker is missing. Stereo is twenty years old. Next owner can change it. I hate stereos in boats.
