What are you doing for power/drives.

Love old school and those that respect/preserve it.
Well done sir.

The thread has been a great read and imagine my surprise when my boat pops up not once, but twice before I get to post it myself :-)

The boat is currently undergoing some performance and cosmetic revisions, so I may post again after these, but until then, here is my contribution!

Sorry it is a bit blurry, but the pic was taken from a Fountain running right next to me….on a phone.

Man I had a blast with that thing!! 76 MPH on a Loran in the early/mid 90's with 470hp and a 28P prop on the original volvo drive.

PS, your old boat still has the original drive on it.

Ill definitely be taking a few trips up the Islands this year.

The cabins not the biggest but similar to a Fountain style. We don't overnight much but its prefect to get out of the sun for a little bit during the day.

Currently Its got twin 540's with TRS drives. I'm planning on throwing a set of Konrads on before the season starts though. Next year I will upgrade the power.

back in 1996, here's was my first dive into the offshore, a 31 ft 1989 Cris Craft Stinger center console. Check out those huge OMC outboards. Great family boat, too slow for me though, 60mph

Looks great Chad! Love the colors on the boat. Did XT do the vinyl?
