I was going to repower-but tested the compression for giggles and the numbers were solid. I have no idea what is wrong with it mechanically. ( I purchased the boat for the hull).I started work in December by preparing to replace the original fuel tank.

Hoping to pass her on to someone interested in restoring her to her former glory.It's a 1986 boat..so of course there's lots of little projects (all aesthetic) in addition to the new gas tank/repowerClean Title....Read more »
