You lucky man.

Looks like the original bimini material, some kind of vinyl. Bullet proof stuff, but you might have to restich it eventually.

Welcome to CSC. You stole the boat. It's worth twice that if the motor is rough, and three times that if the hull's solid and the motor runs well.

Very nice find. Post some more pics.

Seafari78, Dave is right about the pics. Here at CSC we have some real "pervs" that enjoy boat porn, so it's simple......no pics = no boat porn! Not good.

Please comply.

met with my buddy that I bought boat from last night so he could give me more stuff that he had for the boat.
He still had the original never been used center cushion insert for the cuddy, the port and starboard rear cushions, original purchase paperwork and he is bringing me some pictures that were taken of the boat on delivery day to him at the factory.
That should be pretty cool.
The powerhead was rebuilt about 2 years ago then boat was parked in shed....the fuel tank was replaced with a 50 gallon 4 years ago.
I got a remote tank, hooked it up and after a few spins she popped off...I did not run it long (20 seconds or so) because I want to change impeller since it has been sitting.
Used remote tank just in case there was old fuel in tank, found out since tank is dry.

Your friend has been very generous. Buy him a beer. You're going to like this boat.

If the engine has been sitting, clean the carbs, too. As you know, two strokes get their lubricant through the fuel, so clogged passages or jets = no fuel= no lubrication = blown powerhead. It's an easy DIY job if you have the factory service manual or you know your way around a two stroke outboard. All you need is three carb gasket kits and a can of carb/throttle body cleaner. It may not need it, but it's cheap peace of mind.
