I found a 65 Bowrider!

[65Bowrider]

We are going to try working with what we have....
The engines runs, just a little rough, found water in the #4 cylinder & in the oil...so probably a blown head gasket. I know a wonderful oldtime family friend that is very knowledgeable on these older engines & with phone calls between him & Skip, hopefully will get it running in top shape (he used to teach the merc mechanics). For the price I paid and the time searching, I wasn't going to turn her down for a non-perfect engine. They too are made to last.
Are you having any specific problems with your engine?

Are we going to start the photo gallery? How is that done?
