Hello All I'm Mark,
I recently purchased a 1987 Amerosport 284 at auction for $453.00 the marina had taken possesion for non payment of slip fees. I am planning to have the boat set up for next summer. And the family is planning on keeping it at the marina on Canyon Lake in AZ a mere 25 minutes from our home. Yes we do have water out here, but no waves.
Now obviously there are a few items missing from The Stinky Pinky and any information on their whereabouts would be greatly appreciated. I do not have out-drives ( which I think I have an original pair Alpha one Gen 1 Located in working order or might it be better to outfit with a pair of SEI Overdrives which of course come with the 3 yr warranty?)
I need the original door from below the sing in the galley.
I need new Hatch hardware that helps keep the hatch open for one of the hatches.
New Curtains, Bedding (foam) for the v berth/aft cabin, The Mrs. can stitch them up with new materials and new carpet of course.
I need a rear drain plug.
A new cockpit seat would be nice but the one in place will do for now.
I would like to get a full canvas en closer, the boat has ac but it does get up to 115 in august here and would give us more room to chill in at night.
I need a new companionway lock set/ and Ignition switches.
A new set of wiper arms
I have 2 port windows with hairline crack one each that I located through Chris craft parts( along with the companionway keyset
I need batteries I was thinking group b, pair with a Sterling Power Marine Battery Charger 12 volt 30 amp WITH REMOTE any advice I'm all ears
I just got back form NJ 2 weeks ago The Stinky Pinky was at bay in my mothers driveway for the winter months after purchasing a f350 I was able to obtain all necessary permits for the wide load and drove it to gold Canyon AZ 2700 Miles and a true adventure it was all smooth except for the 5 blowouts on the triple axle until I mastered the level ride height adjustment using my newly acquired Diversi-Tech Hitch. The info on weight load capacities from the site greatly aided me in the f350 choice the track had no problems pulling the 8600+ load.
Pictures to follow....
The hull is sound I have already had it checked out
