That baby fired up pretty quick with a little ether and beer. Sounds like it will run like a scalded dog. Really cool boat. Fin's the man!

GOOD GOD MON ….. IT’S ALIVE !!!!!!!!

And what a “score” it is !!! Its amazing to stand at the helm and look forward … the boat feels so much more than 23’

What a behemoth this thing is !!! We were amazed at how quickly and relatively painlessly this monster fired up ….and did she roar !!! Cant wait to see / hear (along with the rest of the neighborhood ) what she sounds like in the water

These pictures were prior to us getting serious [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]… notice no tools and No BEER …

Man “you gots” some good neighbors … How many did the fire-up draw .. 6- 7 ?? Like Pat said …. BEER and ETHER and It's all good…. [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

Nice "bracket". I'm not riding in that thing...

Hey Finnie - does the Gil Cinder Bracket really get the boat up on plane faster? How corroded is it? (not the brick)

Miami Vice isn't the Only VISE in the 'Vette

Time to get serious ….

A closer look …. This looks interesting

Ah yes ….. MacGyver owned this boat at one time … Right after Crockett and Tubbs

Great job on your battery....great place to do a little welding (right beside the fuel tank) [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

I know of a company who would hire you in a minute! [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

That really is a cool boat!

I looked at an 1981 248 Aquasport that had the transom closed a few years ago that had a bracket on it like that. It was a little too much of a project boat to hang my engines on.

I didn't know the Flux Capacitor was an option from Potter

Nice pics Scott, how come yours are in focus and Finsters
aren't??
I think Chris was doing some drinking before you got there [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Maybe you better not say anything about the chains until Otto is in the boat and in route to AC. Oh yeah, in his speedo [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Hey now, that chain is a nesessary safty precaution. And don't be scaring Otto he vulnerable at the moment due to the sale of his Carver.

Otto... Speedo's... Merc 300 and a rusty bracket with a fine looking piece of 4" aluminum channel... I'm scared.. Looks like it might rain but i'm going any way just to see the Vette.. looks good Finny..
