Hello boaters :)

Came to Canada two years ago from Scotland and just bought my first boat.

It's a 1987 Glassport with a 165 mercruiser 4 cylinder, and needs some TLC, hey, it's all I could get away with without the wife divorcing me, lol.

Hopefully just needs an outdrive and some tuning up to get in the water, but I'll post more details in the relevant sections.

Thanks, Dave.

Well he has a mid 2000's red f150 pinned up to the trailer and from the head lights looks like a late 50' chevy pickup

I think that's a hot-rod in there. Open engine, open wheel. Can't tell if it's got a roof on it or not ... but I'll bet it's cool either way :)

Hehehe, I knew some of you would spot the Rod ;-)

And it's not a Ford, it's a Ram, but nice try.

Yes, I'm mad about vehicles. Go big or go small, as they say.

Thanks for the welcome guys.
