Hello all,
Background Info: Unfortunantly I fall into the category of so many first time boat buyers (getting ripped off). The story is a classic long and really well pulled off scam from ebay. my fault partly but I did get it inspected by a marine shop. but they have gone bust and failed to notice the flaws in the hull.
I purchased a 30 year old fiber glass lewis clinker ski boat with a 307 chev with a new bore. She had massive amounts of delamination a rotten transom and stringers.
So considering the time and cost of repairing this peice of junk I managed to find a new stage one hull and have started swopping everything out from the only boat.
Problem: I was hoping that there would be someone out there who has installed or knows of information on installing boat parts.
engine mounts
skeg
cavitating plate
steering
etc.
but the main question i have is for direction on punching a hole for the prop shaft penetration and installing the log box.
would love to have some direction and advice on this matter.
regards Joel
