...no one has posted yet.

Oh well, I will. ;)
I have been given an 16' tri-hull 84 Thundercraft Magnum to fix up or scrap. I think it will fix up nicely as the only major thing wrong with it is that it is sitting on a rusted out trailer (from failing to rinse salt water off it). But anyway, it has a 60 horse Mariner that was running 4 years ago when the boat was parked and a new one took it's place.
The floor feels hard and in good shape but I have yet to trailer the boat to my place to start the teardown.

If you Thundercraft owners will come around now and then I could probably use some help restoring this boat. Ya'll still out there?? :)

Not sure if this is about the Canadian Thundercraft boats or not but I've had 2 of them, a 1989 Magnum 290 and now a 1990 Express 340, good boats, still see lots around, too bad they got hit with the recession in the early 90's and went under.

Re: Hmm, two fellas asked for this forum but...

I have a 1991 Thundercraft 177LS. This is my first boat. I just bought it last year at the end of the summer (got a really good deal), and was only able to take it out one time before winterizing and storage. So, I am very anxious to get it out and do some boating/fishing.
