New member Introduction 73 Reinell RV2500 PROJECT

[jacksreinell]

Hi, I am new here. I bought a 73 Reinell RV2500 today. I feel like I got a nice boat although it does need quite a bit of work! I'm a Mechanic have worked on Cars mostly and aircraft a bit too, hoping I can figure out a boat. The daughter who sold it after her dad had passed said that last year it was in the water and running but it's not turning over now. Not even sure of the kind of engine it has? Will definitely need to get an owners manual for this boat and I'm really hoping this site will have some great info to help me out. A quick scan looks like I'm in the right place. Any tips or quirks or general info you have to pass along would be great. Thanks
