Nice finds.....


What were you thinking of for sharing? Always open to ideas.....

 

[BDC1013]

Jeff, yes that boat is also much older than mine though. I was thinking engines, then scrap the rest.

Ratickle, just a section where maybe you've found something that is local that no one else would know about but you, and you think others may be interested. Like personally I am looking for a 420 cyclone, probably something out there but I have no idea where it is.

Brian, you may want to PM Jim(mobilmercman). He would know a lot about the Cyclone specs.

All right, come up with a title for the section and we'll work on it, i think it's a great Idea.

Now THIS is a money pit.
Just needs four engines, four drives and all the rigging, hydraulics and electronics.

Dang, it cost me $150.00 in gas in the Welcraft for a day on the water. Paul's got a buddy with one of those beasts, 4 - 454's !

There is one in Detroit for sale that is in really nice shape and has 502s for around 100k.

Almost would want diesels.

Kinda what I was thinking John. I did notice that he dropped the price $1000 to 31k.

holes are already plugged.
Strap on a 9.9 OB or a trolling motor.
Sell it as a "green" alterantive to the Earth destroying gas eaters

Then you can jack the price way up and advertise on treehuggers.com

OK, maybe a dumb question, but where are the exhaust holes in the transom :huh:

 

[MacGyver]

Oh, oh, oh........it has a cassette deck!!

My guess being that it was an express cruiser (sorry, is an express cruiser) is that they were through-hub exhausts. Lower hp engines, more of em. 454 could be done through-hub.

My Chris Craft Stinger had through-hub. (Prop)

I thought of all my 1988 cassettes and started wondering if I could tow it. :biggrinjester:
