The boat has been re-painted hasn't it? Where are the stripes and orig hull side decals? New gas tank installed? Was the deck off ever or just a gas tank cut out deal? Where did you find stainless manifolds like those or are they polished aluminum? Do you have the original drivers' seat? Do you have the grab bar around the cockpit? Do you have the rest of the upper cushions? Is the trailer included? Which Merc drive is on the boat? What supports the ski storage area now that it has been severed from the "tub"? Is it re-tabbed or floating?

Looks like new paint throughout?

Is that a left hand helm with a right hand drive?

Boat is in condition I bought it in 2 years ago

It had to of been repainted

It has the red stripe on the side & Donzi letters

The previous owner took the deck off to beef it up some, the tank(28 gallons) was not replaced @ that time. He made the cuts in case it was ever replaced

I do not have the grab rail or missing cushion

The previous owner replaced the original 302 V drive with the 350 back in the mid eighties. He was a boat mechanic by trade & owned the boat for around twenty years

I live on Galveston Bay & run the boat atleast every week
