Hey Guyzes. Remember this project. My original post was on Nov 2, 2003. Well after 23 months working off and on I finally got serious about it this spring and got it in the water last week. Runs great. Thirty-seven MPH with a high torque prop for pulling two water skiers. New floor is rock solid, a minimum of pounding, turns like it is on rails and jumps on plane in about four boat lengths. Before and after pictures at: http://photobucket.com/albums/b349/lcrayne/ <br />Now for the details. Ground all the old floor out to the hull forward of the engine well, replaced it with marine plywood resined on the underside, 3 1/2 gallons of Duraglass to level the edges of the new floor to the hull, roving on the sides to tie the floor to the hull, drilled 2 holes ever sq/ft from the transom forward and poured three 8 lb kits of 2 lb pourable expanding urethane foam until it came out the holes, replaced the plugs and covered it with two layers of 6 oz fiberglass cloth. New carpeting, seats, built an engine box, replaced the hydraulic lines on the outdrive and diverse other mechanical parts. Cleaned and polished everything and plopped it in the water. Since this is my first boat project, I could not have done it without the invaluable information I have gleaned from following your posts for the past two years. I would like to thank everyone for the wealth of information you have provided. Would be happy to answer any questions anyone may have. Thanks again for all of the valuable information
