The boat was purchased as a new leftover in 91 by my father. He bought it at a Marina on the Hudson River in NY. I did all the maintenance for him over the years and it was virtually trouble free until the summer of 98. Apparently one of the exhaust manifolds cracked and leaked water into at least one cylinder which became hydraulically locked.I think it was more likely a leaking riser gasket. My father had the boat towed back to his slip and it was a month or so before i could look at it and determine what had happened. I had the boat towed back from the NJ Shore to my home in Stony Point NY and put up on blocks in my yard. It basically sat there until the following summer and the engine was seized at that point. I removed the cylinder heads and poured oil on top of all the pistons and left it that way hoping to try and turn the engine a week or two later. In the meantime my father was diagnosed with cancer and I never got a chance to get back to it. The boat has since remained shrink wrapped on blocks in my yard {about 12 years}. I'm thinking my first step is to get a trailer so i can get under a chain hoist to pull the engine. I'm hoping that i can knock the pistons out and hone the cylinders and replace the rings. Other than that i figure i will have to replace the fuel lines and hoses.The fuel pump, rebuild the carb {Holley 850}, possibly some wiring and upholstery. I don't think the stringers should be rotted because it was pretty well protected from wetness. Also i believe there was approx 75 gallons of fuel in the tank that i will have to remove. So i guess my first question is are there any other likely problems that i might not be considering? What would be a good trailer for this boat and what are my chances of finding a good used one? I will be pulling it with a 2010 Ram 1500 5.7 Hemi.
