Re: VIP Questions

that is a sweet looking boat, because it isn't an I/O the motor is very serviceable if the hull and transom is in good shape I think you are going to have a lot of fun. Have you had a boat shop look at the motor and generally evaluate the hull

Re: VIP Questions

Yea its all good. Heres the deal. Found the boat last year for a steal. Got it home and was waiting for the weather to get right. When it did the 150 on it has a beep beep beep beep going on and by the time i found the problem i lost the # 2 cylinder. So i find me a good uesd 200 efi and slapped it on. Took it out this weekend and had a blast. The boat tends to porpours till u get it up to speed. Had to spend alittle money on the new motor but it has a warrenty and is efi Do you know anything about these boats. I kinda need a model so i can order a good cover to keep it out of the weather

Re: VIP Questions

All you really need is the measured distance between the deck hinges that are already there, then decide between a two bow or three bow bimini top. The generic tops are held on by adjustable straps.
