Very Cool!!!! Your exhaust work looks perfect and I sure dig that you kept the wood Grain, I wanted to save it on my Spectra but it was too far gone. Good luck with the rest of your project!

Since Kyndl hasn't posted any updates on here I figured I'll post this. Fired it up and set timing today.

That really turned out great! What brand is the steering wheel?

Some more random pics of the fit and finish:

All plumbing hardware, fittings, hose and motor brackets are from Teague.

I decided on Livorsi Guages and SwitchPro’s for management and control. Pretty cool I can fire the boat from my phone!

Dude, this really came out nice! But even more impressive is how fast you got it done, literally a full restoration in less than 6 months. Given the backlogs and wait times lots of top quality shops (like the ones you used) have and how long it takes to put these damn things together my mind is blown at how quick you got it done. Also pretty damn cool that you saved an old step deck, they don't always get a lot of love but that's a great hull with lots of history.

Can you share what the budget was on this deal?

Thank you!

Probably 90-100k into it and that’s with doing most of the work myself; assembly, plumbing, wiring, etc. I got passionate about it and got it rigged and running in like 7 weeks.

Hey Dan, long time no see. This is Billy.

I bought this from Kyndl. What number are you looking for?

Geoff and Brandon came down and cruised around with me for the Schiada regatta. Hope everything is good.
