Re: Tri-Hull Club...Yes? No? Maybe?
Thank you! I had a '61 Larson that needed more $$ & effort than I had. It had an '81 Johnson 70 hp that runs great. I looked for a hull only & couldn't find one so I looked for a boat/trailer with a bad motor. Found this one for $300.00 with a screwed up '81 Johnson 115 hp. I sold that motor for $200.00 for parts & moved my 70 hp to the MFG. The trailler was for a much bigger boat, I had to cut 3' off it & remount coupler & adjust bunks, rollers & move the winchpost but it all worked. I have since replaced keel rollers, bow stop, bunks, lights, & tires. I also added a spare tire & lighted guideposts. The boat itself was in good condition. No soft spots, good, solid transom & wiring is fine. This spring I want to mount a casting deck & livewell. I didn't really have to do any restoration, just cleaned it up. It took 4 months to find what I was looking for. It needs to be buffed out & a few minor repairs to the interior & it'll be set. This fall I added a second battery & wiring system with interior lights & a 12 volt plug. I'll add more lights & a circuit for the livewell.
