    [WTS] 1998 GMC 3500 (lowered OBS dually).

    So if you kept the semi wheels and adapters and put the stock wheels back on, what kinda price are we looking at?

    My Baker Tunnel Restoration

    Well, she’s for sale. The wife didn’t enjoy riding in it and if there’s a quicker way to stop boating than making your wife hate it, I don’t want to know what it is. We bought another boat already so it’s sadly time to let the Baker go. I think I’ll be asking $12k.

    1986 Eliminator Liberty rebuild...

    Yea I’m sure that Bimini was acting as a drag chute. Probably coulda climbed a few more mph at the same rpm with it down. Looks like you were having a great time and ultimately that’s all that really matters!

    My Baker Tunnel Restoration

    Is it just me or is having a new transom like having a new pair of shoes. Just something about having the confidence to go running full speed without a sole tearing off 😂

    My Baker Tunnel Restoration

    Yea that’s the way it’s been since I purchased it a couple years back. It’s funny, because it wasn’t until you just mentioned it that I realized there would be a better way of doing it. The added setback against the jackplate causes it to kind of struggle up and down, although it always does...

    My Baker Tunnel Restoration

    Today I completed the sanding. I’ve decided I’m going to try something a little unorthodox. Im going to wrap the transom gloss black. I want to see what it’ll look like to do an accent transom. I have high hopes! If I hate it, I’ll rip it off and continue with the paint job after the summer is over.

    Thanks! As you already know, I’m in for a painful amount of sanding.

    My Baker Tunnel Restoration

    Today I glassed on the outer skin! Tomorrow begins the fairing process which will not be very fun at all. You can see where I was marking the low spots on the transom, and the super low spots are circled. I tried to save myself some sanding later on by backfilling the final lamination with...

    Wood is glued and filleted in with thickened resin. Tomorrow starts the outer skin attaching and fairing process.

    My Baker Tunnel Restoration

    Well… unfortunately after finding some brown water drops originating behind my jack plate I was forced to explore the idea of transom rot. It’s not something I wanted to deal with in the middle of the boating season, but life isn’t fair most of the time. I cut the outer skin away and quickly...

    Baker MOD VP

    Here’s mine. I discovered the lower 1/3 of the transom was bad so it’s getting a brand new one right now. Was just repainted in March, motor is very healthy. Hotfoot, billet shifter, ski pole. Interior is a 7/10, not because of age but because it was my first time doing any upholstery so and...

    From my Mustang to an AC Cobra, a build thread.
