----Thanks in advance for your help, Marshall!!!.......Bill S
Marshall,
Looks like a very well cared for & clean 27 sport!.......Would you believe Phil (Alloy) still hasen't delivered on the anchor locker hatch yet!
Nice Fino!!..........I run through Tenefly occasionally, if it's port of call (Marina) can be identified....... I can possibly eye it for pictures.

Pete,
Sorry about Alloy... but the tanks look good. Do you think you can finish the Sport for next spring? Maybe some inspiration for you in the fall; I am thinking of doing the " Around Manhattan" run that was Oct. 7 or so last year, I'll keep a spot open if you're interested. I ran in the Manhassett "Gold Coast" run a couple weeks ago, it was fun but we got jumped at the start so I missed all the running heli pics. If you go to the APBA site, nationalpowerboat.com , there are a few shots of Mayhem (who took down the best looking boat trophy) I'm proud to say. We ran the course at 65-70mph but there were a lot of big boys there running 125-150 including the MTI cat that just set the around LI record and the 43' Outerlimits that set the v-hull speed record last yr. at the LOTO shootout.
Looks like I will run back out east tomorrow so I will hopefully see the Fino again and get more intel. The tender idea makes sence since we were on a dock filled with BIG yachts and the more I think about it, the more I think I've seen the mothership.

Marshall,
Phil is a quirky guy. "It's coming any week now" 16 months later!!......You did all you could, he just hasen't delivered yet.
I'd definately be interested in "around Manhattan" let me know the details as we approach Oct. 7th.........count me in!
I'd love to splash by next spring, but it's very optimistic. I put a 5 year time table back in 2010....anything sooner would
be gravy.
Congratulations on "best looker" for MAYHEM..............You did a wonderful job restoring her. You should be proud having
that recognition from APBA...........Nice!!!

Pete,
I will definately keep you up on the run in Oct.
Back from Sag Harbor, and here is the Fino update:
She is a tender to a 118' yacht, "Indescretion", home port Tenafly NJ.
I do not have the owners name yet but I should get it from a friend.
No more pictures because the boat was covered and owner was not in town.
According to the crew the boat is a 68' and the current owner bought it when he was 22 from an estate sale in upstate NY ( I'm guessing at least 20yrs. ago) The boat was in rough shape and he had it totally restored. Not sure of the orig. color. She now has 502ci Chief motors so maybe it spends some time in FL? Thats all I have for now.
Didn't intend to hijack this thread Pete...

----Thanks Det. Marshall!!! We are indebted to you........Bill S
Not easy to manage a 65" fuel tank all alone into the foward compartment with the deck on, but I got her done!
I lowered the tank into the well by lasso roping it untill level and tied off on my fabricated brackets. The tank sits
2" off the bottom and with a 1-1/2" gap around the sides should be the strongest and unmovable part of my boat
when it's all foamed in..........One more to go....GEEEEEEEZE !!

Looks good Pete. Did Phil mention what the tank capasity is? When I took my tanks out it was a battle too and they barely fit thru the cabin way. I told him to make the new ones slightly smaller so they would go back in easier.

Marshall,
I was curious enough about the tank size late last night to read way back in the thread where Pete mentioned 65 gallons. Bill

Marshall,
Bill is right 65 gals and then some............Old original was 55" long @ 55 gals.
Had to extend the gussets 5" foward & aft.....so the CG was spread evenly.

thats interesting, 65 gal, my tanks go from the helm bulkhead to theat same looking transverse/gussett which is about 8-10 inches aft of the next full bulkhead. And mine are 50gal.

Marshall,
The 65" tank sits in a 68" compartment (or well) between the foward & aft gussets....room enough
around the tank to adequately foam it in...........The fuel pipe on the tank will be right up aganist
the inside cabin bulkhead wall.............The cockpit sole will be 6" lower than than the cabin sole.
I'll be climbing up into the cabin....
