She looks like a SuperSport. Appears to be in fine fettle, too.

Did you have to go to Acapulco for her? A long tow.

Re: 1987 Bluefin Sportsman 1900 Rebuild

I read this thread first and then saw in the other thread where you found her. She still looked good, until you tore into her. :lol: But the tear down pix didn't come through. :blue:

Holey snikies John, the hubs must have still been warm when you started tearing into her. Looked like a nice sunny day, well there's some bad stuff coming your way, it's here as I type this.

Warm hubs? I'm not even sure the wheels stopped rollin'. John musta had dinner at that Mexican joint and he was hot to trot. :lol:

Flipper or keeper, John?

Watch out! Sig is armed and dangerous. And he wants that motor. :lol:

Re: 1987 Bluefin Sportsman 1900 Rebuild

Well I guess I should ammend that statement, I really wouldn't kill for it but I would give someone else's left leg.

Motor envy can be dangerous thing in the boating world. Add the stress of rebuilding 2 boats and it can become lethal!

Re: 1987 Bluefin Sportsman 1900 Rebuild

The PO said it ran awesome, we started it with muffs seemed to run and shift properly, but I guess the real test will come when we get it in the water, if it runs as good as the 125 merc we had on the v5 we'll be happy.
