Ya you would have trouble wiping the smile off my face with a stick, I can't believe the difference moving the fuel tank to the back port corner made in the overall performance of the boat. The trailer works better than any I have had for unload and load.

Video is uploading.

Re: 1976 Holiday 18 Mercruiser 120 COMPLETE

I guess we will call this one complete, if you ever can. I have a couple small water leaks from hose clamps to tighten, Bimini top will be here Monday or Tuesday, I'm calling it Complete.

Fantastic! Looks like you had the lake all to yourself today. She's a strong runner, that 120 sounds really nice. Did you get to open her all the way up?

Very nice Glen, looks awesome on the water, makes me wish I could have taken mine out, but the red river is to high and and boating is prohibited as yet and the lakes to far away.
