Thanks. Fenderjack, it's got 509ci 600 hp motors in it. 80mph. Still has TRS's on it. Bought outta Bohemia River last August. Ran the rest of season, then ripped it apart cause one motor had a blown head gasket, hurt a few pistons, & I wanted to repaint everything. Was happy when motor builder told me they were 509's. Guy who bought it from knew nothing about the motors, just they were built at Ocean Performance in 2004, before he bought it. Also has new style interior done by Fountain. Where's the updates on your 10 meter? I've been looking.

That is good mph, esp for having the Trs'- trans. I just started working on mine again, been busy, the heat has been brutal. I was not going to have any part of sanding or glassing in 100deg temps, 85% humidity, lol. I will have to refresh my thread. Got the transom assemblies/ tabs and all off the back. Paint shouldn't be to far out.
