Just picked this baby up for $495 on ebay. This will supplement my big boat when the waves on Lake Michigan are too high and we want a puddle jumper for the small inland lakes. Tubing and stuff.
Needs some work. Holes on bow look like they are from some windlass that he took off. I will need to either get another to cover it up or look to somehow fill the holes.
Seats are shot. Picked up two sets on ebay for $80 a piece, just got them today.
Dash faded. Thinking about an oak dash replacement.
Steering wheel is coming apart due to weathering. Probably just put a cover over it unless someone knows a place to get an original replacement. I am in NW Indiana
Windshield I just took off prior to this post. It looks like it cracked and he just patched it with another piece. Not good for admiral. I read about replacing with a piece from Lowes. Jan project.
Trailer is ok. Had a time registering it. Homemade no title. Probably need bearings replaced for piece of mind.
Engine - Feb project. Seller said it ran rough and didn't circulate water. Hopefully just an impellor and carb cleaning. 1969 55hp Johnson. Heavy son of a gun.
Carpet is that outdoor plastic stuff. Gotta go, other wise I will hear from all the girls that it is hard on their feet. Wife three Girls 8-13.
First one. Wish me luck. I will post as I go.
First day off next Thurs. Gonna take out seats, carpet and try buffing it up a little to bring back a little shiine.
Parents have a three car insulated garage. They just left for florida for the winter, so guess where my baby is?
