Update: "Ski Boat" Here is my little project I am working on
 

Well I bought this old '83 Ski Nautique boat that was in really bad shape. This is what I have been spending a few hours in the evenings on instead of my cars! I have replaced the floors and re-fiberglassed them, changed the paint scheme and went with some up to date colors, new interior, repainted the trailer and rhino-lined the fenders.
I am fixing to order a new 351 Ford Win. engine. the old block and heads were cracked due to some poor maintence by the previous owner.

My next additions will be a custom aluminum wakeboard tower and racks and a stereo system. The windshield will be in soon, but the side pieces were cracked, so I am waiting on the glass guy! Hope to be out on the water in a few weeks!

Very cool.

My wife and I redid a 1971 Checkmate a number of years ago and loaded it with a huge on large mercury outboard. Painted it bright red imron and did all the other goodies. Had to buy a new trailer though because I couldn't save mine. What a blast.

You will have some fun this Summer.
