Some Photos & updates on my boat

Post by mpulsev10 »

Ok its getting much closer to ocean ready. Thanks to George Petty in canada!!! I have some much needed transmission parts coming. My boot stripe is completed, the swim deck is almost done, just needs mounting. I have the bilge almost painted and new rudder posts ready to install.

Vey nice! Your half tower looks almost identical to mine.
Looking forward to hearing a report of how she runs once she's splashed.

I believe they are called clean machines because the deck has absoulutely nothing on it. You can kind of see it on my Avatar.

mpulsev10 If your replacing the rudder posts check the f/glass there it is a week spot and can have hidden cracks . I almost lost my boat because of that .
