hello guy`s
i just got this boat a few weeks ago and she nice outside but needs alot of work inside. but thats ok . i seen this boat in a friends back yard and i had to have it. i`m spent alot of time searching the web but no luck until now. my raven is 22.3 ft long with 8ft beam it has now motor or drive and i`m looking to save on gas . i think it had a 3.7 4cyl merc in it from new but i could be wrong on that. so any ideas on what to put in this boat.
well guy`s thanks for all the input >>>i`v decided to go with ford mercruiser 302 v8 and outdrive assy i found on ebay in wasaga beach and got complete assy with low hours. i have taken all interier out and did a complete cleaning . also replacing all interier with teak wood and stain and marine varnish and all new carpete with led lighting including deck lighting. replacing all wiring and going with updated fuse panel with breakers not glass fuses. this could be the summer she goes in the water . its been a long couple of years collecting all the items i need to complete this reno.as you will see in the new pictures i was given a dual axle trailer from my landlord for free and have to paint it and new tires and rimes and brakes wow what a saving that was. well send more as i go on thanks again.
ok updates sence i started this poject and its been a long one ,,,here are some new pic`s and its been now over two years and i`m still not done but as you can see from the start i only had an empty shell but now its almost done take a look i hope all you raven boat owners enjoy it as much as i have and how much you learn when you go the way i did.
