    • First number that came to mind is $19,995. I haven't looked at any comps, but I know it can cost a lot to do all the things you have done. I don't especially love the tower, and the hours are pretty low for that age which makes me leery too. 

    • I completely agree with your take. As I look at it, I’m having trouble coming to terms with offering it for sale. At the same time however, I know someone will love it and create just as many amazing memories as we did. That’s a good feeling! Thanks brother for the feedback

    • Well, we shall see on the flow rate.  I was excited to find something that close.  Too add to task, the injetors don't fit.  When I talked to the tech at Indmar, he explained somewhere along the line the pilot on the injector was enlarged by GM.  He expected that my year would be one of them affected.  He advised reaming the hole using a shop vac to collect the cuttings.  The injector hole in the intake is stepped. The smallest hole is for the seal.  This size matched. There is a pilot above the seal. The OD of pilot of the replacement injectors is 5/8".  The hole in my manifold and the pilot on the old injectors were 1/32 under.   That step is in process now.  I will grab some photos.

      Is the cap flat on the business side?  Please show a photo of both sides.  It would seem that you could fabricate one from a piece of aluminum bar.

      No. It’s not flat and I think they will be back in stock in a few weeks.  I JB welded the cracks today and started on the hose today with no leaks.  Hopefully that will hold it until they are restocked. 

       

       

    • Well, brought it home today! Kids were pretty excited! Taking it out tomorrow to a small lake local to us. 
      Towed good with my gladiator. Need some kind of tow mirrors. Or a camera facing backwards? Now a days there must be something like that? 
      Anyway, really appreciate everyone’s help and guidance on purchasing this boat. I have plans for it, but those can probably wait till winter. IMG_5664.thumb.jpeg.65d82ef6391fb2be55483d26d0151bc4.jpeg
