WOW! 1500.00 :shock: Must of needed GLASS work I find em all the time like that (not that new) but glass work is exspensive I can do alot but glass work, I never tried it..

Yea I would PIMP the 2007 first if I was you also. Bummer for us though was really looking forward to seeing the ins and outs of the electric build.

Good Luck with 2007 and since you can do glass work I am sure you SCORED! :D :D :D :D :D

I bought a new opti 150 with a five year warranty. Got a great deal on it so I grabbed it! The boat was just a hull with a on board charger. TM Fourtrex 80lb for 800.00, Two graphs for 400.00 One color one BW, hydro steering for 500.00, 200.00 for a new rub rail but the old one will be used on the other project. 200.00 for a jack plate. It has a salvage title. No biggie though. If I cant get it removed I dont think Ill lose much if I ever sell. If I cant sell it for what I have into it then Ill just part it out.
Not sure if Im going to fix the Gel damage this year. This weather is giving me the itch! I might just go fishin and fix it next winter. I bought the boat at a local dealer who knows I love them projects,lol.
