Riffraff,

Great looking project. What are the spray rails, a commercial product such as Smart Rails, or a custom fabrication and installation?
Regarding the height of the scuppers above the waterline, I'd guess that the 200 Yamaha weights about 470+/- lbs, you indicated the deck height is original height, yet the holes are well above the water's surface; did you do anything internally to change the trim of the hull?

dcobbett,
I didn't do anything to change the hull, I think you are dead on about he weight of the motor, I will be honest with you, I was very concerned about the level of the scuppers until we floated it. The spray rails are plastic rails that were cut to length and screwed with 5200 and painted. They do make a difference.

Very, Very nice riffraff.

If you find down the road that the Rabud's are not sealing corectly. The ball's will need to be cleaned. This is a PITA with Rabub's as you have to dismount everything and then reinstall and reseal them.
If that time come's about. I'd suggest replacing them with TH unit's. the mounting hole's will be the same, but TH has 1 screw you backout a little and the whole plastic housing turn's aprox 1/4 turn. Like a baynot style. The ball's are then real easy to clean and reinstall without disturbing the mounting screw's.

You did a real nice job!!
I really like the Original SeaCraft Logo.
That would make a nice addition to the CSC gear.
See ya, Ken

Sweet boat. I repowered with a 2005 yam 150 4-stroke that weighs about the same. It sits a little lower than it used to but the deck still drains. I don't get 53 MPH though!!!I really like the canvas storage covers. That would be great for fly fisherman like me, fly lines seek out any possible tanglement like stowed rods. The work looks great. Congratulations.
