    Yes I will keep that in mind. If I do a repower, I would just opt for a Chevy small block just to keep things simple and cheap, and parts are eveywhete for a small block. I could do a big block but that’s overkill for this little boat. A stock 350 would be fine.

    Good morning southkogs, appreciate the welcome. I have not had it out on the water yet, just got it to my house over the weekend. Ok cool so the boards are the stringers. They are not completely bad, there are 2 or 3 that have like maybe 1/2” from the top are a little soft. I figure I can...
