I kept the same stuffing box - just repacked it - mechanic is leaving deck plate off for the sea trial so he can check the drip and make sure everything is lined up and working properly. I will get some better pics of the T-Top and post when I get them, also I am looking to replace the canvas with fiberglass. The best feature is that the boat has hydraulic jacks to lift the T-Top forward - we just installed new heavy duty hinges on the front with thru bolts and backing plates - the old hinges were not strong enough and kept breaking. Makes it a snap to get to the engine.
