One question Cayman boy........i noticed your deck drains are "down and out the transom" style as is expected for the model year.....im still trying to decipher whether mine is a '69 model or '70 model.......by any chance can you tell me how your non skid is patterned around the deck drain? ....from this sketch. Thanks in advance!!! Since i bought a project boat that was already someone else's project some things were missing and im going crazy just trying to piece everything together.........and one of those things is correcting the model year....since my title states 79 which mine is clearly not!! I'm rambling but any help would be nice!!!

Answer to McGillicuddy and realclassic20sf. Deck drain nonskid is similiar to the drawing on the right, soft curves, no hard angles, I sanded all the original pattern off. It moves along, I haven't installed the GPS yet, so I don't know top end, hole punch is impressive, had an overheat at high RPM, I'm cleaning the heads and such, only got 5100 out of it swinging a 19" wheel, this w/e going to put it back in, see if I've solved the o/h issue and figure out why I'm not getting the turns, cav plate is 1/2" above bottom. Any thoughts? Still not possitive I'm getting full throttle throw. First time I've run that engine, trying to get out the bug's out, itsa 1999 OX66. Once I figure out the o/h, I'll chase the rpm issue and do a gps run. this site has been a HUGE help in my refit, looking forward to the changes on the nexy one!!

Very, very nice. I like those deck lights. Also, excuse my ignorance, but are those cup holders inside of the console? Clever idea, seems like a decent spot to drop wallet/cell phone/whatever else one would typically put on the dash that is bound to fly off. Or hide your "soda" from the marine patrol.

Is that a Lauderdale Yacht Club flag? I keep my boat at Sundance, right there off Cordova.

Thank you very much, the lights are nice, they dim and go white or blue, xcatly what the holders are for! And yes, it is LYC, right around the corner.

BTW Cayman, a very inspiring and spectacular redo!!!

Your boat is a beauty. I am working on a 1978 20' MA and seeing your finished product has me pumped. The sea foam colored deck is sweet! [img]/forum/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]
