This is my first boat I did a little paint work on a dodge Dakota for her I've taking it out 4 times since I've had it .every time I get to the lake she fires right up first crank and runs like a dream but after about 30-45 min of cruising or pulling tube if I shut it off it won't fire back up for at least an hour so I learned not to shut it down until I get back to camp haha that's something I will have to look into before heading back out my plans are a complete retro of the boat top to bottom a little about me I restore classic cars & also I restore bikes this is my first boat and fiberglass project

Her she is day I picked her up

Thank you glad I found this place and yes I plan on pulling the floor up and replacing everything under it I'm sure I'll have plenty of questions to keep everyone busy haha it's not going to be a fast build my goal is to be completed by March 2016
