First weekend finally!
 
10 Attachment(s)
I came to this site more than a year ago when I found my lifetime dream boat a Potterbuilt Sceptre (78). I was given amazing advice from so many senior and other members from this site on topics including:

Transom re-build advice
re- wiring
interior original accessories
re-power options and recommendations
Anchor options

I even got a free Classic SeaCraft sticker from DonV!

I appreciate everything everyone did to guide me on the way. I hope to carry on your tradition and reach out to all who need help and advice. You have all created a amazing community here! Good on you!

Here are some pics from my first weekend finally on Dreaming Tree!!!

Dream Tree
 
Good Job resurrecting her Eric. She looks great - ENJOY
PS - Don always has stickers, it's the Pink Pantie Drop he's always running out of!!!

The "Drop" is gone!!! This time at the Scallop Gathering the Apple Pie was first to go............thanks Dougie for finishing off the last apple slice! Actually not too much effort was involved in getting him to do that! :)

It is really not as bad as you would think! Haven't had it in a large beam sea yet. Its a pretty exhilarating feeling up there I will say!

Nice job.....transom mounted 300 looks good. What mounting hole?

You still fighting that mounting hole? :)

I made a change to a PowerTech prop and am very happy with the results.

Ken-I'm all the way up with no cavitation. I'm leaving it until a Hermco twin bracket shows up under the tree! 18.5 Zuke prop. What are your #'s with the new prop.
