Incredible.

Would be nice if you could run a restoration thread in the Old School section with the redo of the boat and more of its history.

And welcome, can't wait to see more.

Thanks! I just bought the boat last fall and spent last season rebuilding the motors. They just got freshened up due to the fact the boat had sat for a while. I hit 80 with ease and expect some where around 85. The previous owner blew two drves in the time he owned it over a 15 year period. Not bad. The drives apear to be in good shape. I think it is the perfect drive package for that power. Just wish they were'nt obsolete. The boat has a pink stripe and the name is 'PinkFloyd'. I love the name. Right for the era boat and fits me and my mood very well. :sifone: The drives are actually 3a's.

Not mine, but like the old school boats, so thought I would post it up.

CRC you probably recognize this old Stinger. Seen it yesterday, looks to be in real good shape. Do you know the owner? Sorry for crappy pic.
