Well, it’s in my shop! The boat is in good shape! Floor is firm, cusions and seats are in good shape, carpet is decent, electrical is a bit of a mess, but it all works. Motor turns by hand, but starter bendix is stuck up, so that’s why the gear is all busted up. The Hull is in good shape, with a couple of minor dents. The steering cable is stuck, possibly frozen.
I have all of the gear out of it, and have the fans and heat on in my shop to dry it out. I’ll leave it for a day or two so it can get dried out. Once dry I am going to dig into the steering cable issue (hope I can free it up). I’m also going to look at beginning the cleanup of the wiring.
As seen in the pictures, the trailer is far too small for the boat. It’s so far back that I had to crib up the stern to keep the nose down. The tongue actually wants to lift up when not hooked up to a vehicle. I have the refurb of the new trailer underway. All new LED lighting, all new wiring, new winch. Once the trailer is put together I’m going to transfer the boat onto the new trailer.
Anywho....some pictures of it in the shop after pulling everything off to get it dried out.
**Update**I have to resize all the pictures. Bear with me, I’ll work on getting pictures up as soon as I can.
