So it was suggested to start a topic on my SS181 to show some pics. Here we go.
This is not a restore or rebuild, the wife and I just like to fish and this boat is comfortable and stable.
Since we bought it, we have replaced a section of floor, new steering cable and new shift cable. Also bought a bimini top for those hot sunny days.

That's a nice looking SS. They are very versatile boats aren't they. We Love oir 16, but are starting to get the desire for an 18 or even a 20 if the right one comes along.

Transom is good. Seems to have been replaced at some point. Floor was soft in the centre around the ski locker but the rest is pretty solid.
The boat does quite well in the waves (and wakes from the ski boats) although the wind does like to push it where I don't want to go.
