20' CC 1970 - 175 HP Yamaha

[abjohn]

A mountain biking trip in college took me through Clemson South Cackalacky. It is pretty cool. The whole town has paw prints on it. Even though my veins pulse Orange and Blue for the Gators, Clemson is one cool football town. I did a quaterback camp with coach Stockstill (QB coach back then) when I was a sophmore in high school. Getting to touch the rock and run down the hill into Death valley was a neat experience. I sit row 87 in Section 15 of The Swamp, so i get to experience the baddest stadium in the country about 6-7 times a yr. I would however like to go to a big game in Death Valley some day to feel what Tiger Pride sounds like. OK, enough about football. Sorry bout that fellas. It's one of the few things that get me more fired up than a well put together Potter built

Yup, die-hard Clemson fan (only a sticker for all you Gamecock fans), but even bigger College Football Fan in general. Never been to the Swamp, I am sure it is one neat place to watch a game!

The scuppers were on the boat prior to the update modifications. They are very handy.

The port side well has a thumb size drainhole that leads to the center of the hull and has forward access below the floor, it is not set up as a bait well. The starboard well has a 3/4" pipe with valve the comes up through the bottom and has a drain through the rear transom. It is obvious that the prior owner had it set up as a bait well, but I never used it or tested the valve (unfortunately, the only fishing pole I own has a Disney princess on the reel and a rubber duck for bait - my daughter likes to cast).

The jack plate does move the large engine back about 12 inches, so it does sit a bit heavy in the water. The true benefit of the plate is ther versatility it allows to fine toon the boat while under power, a trade-off that I have been very happy with.

Regards,
Pete

Nice looks 20 !

The bracket you have is trick, actually made by Jeff Porta (Porta Industries, Edgewater, FL.). The two aluminum plates, that hold alignment of base mounts, are for shipping and installation and can be removed after install....cleaning up the look of the bracket. This can be verified by going to Portaproducts.com and view their installs.
That's a $2500 rig, installed.

Good luck on sale.
