Re: I'm Back......
Looking good Angel. Hey, if you replace the lifeline on the deck is there a grab rail that will fit or cover the original holes? If you have a plan please let me know. Thanks, Chris

Re: I'm Back......
Here are some updated pics...progress has been slowed thanks to every single Hurricane in the world that decide to come by.
Today I got a real good jump on the prep for paint next weekend hopefully. I've also gutted the entire cockpit and replaced a weak section of the floor.
Ironman,
Yes I have an idea for covering the area where the lifeline use to be. I'm still working on it but I wll post pics as soon as I get it done.

Re: I'm Back......
What a difference so far! What do you plan to do for power? Keep it as an outboard or convert to I/O?
Good Luck and keep updating pics, nice to see a classic getting the full treatment.

, my Carrera is a 1982 that is set up for a Bravo. I am at the point you are at, getting it ready for paint and making some other mods. It came with everything except a running engine, a used BBC, condition unknown, w\Littlefield but I want to start fresh. I will start to hunt for an engine once it is rerigged and ready for power.

A merc 2.5 sure would make the boat run real nice!!

Re: I'm Back......
JJH,
How you doing? Good I hope.
Say hi to your dad for me.
Juan when are you BUYING SOMETHING?
Minx20,
Trust me those old Carrera's are rock solid. They weigh a bit but they ride like cadillacs. Post a pic of your boat.
