At least you can reach stuff. I have no room and everything is 2-3' lower than that.

Very nice rod!

The marina upcharging you a couple inches on length and width has prompted you to sell the boat?

searayman is great. I buy the plastic side air vents from him. You're going OEM so it's going to be expensive. $110 is not bad for two OEM badges. If you get cheaper, they're either going to be banged up, fall apart in the elements, or both.

Good point. Missed that distinction since it's not in his sig, but was in the OP.

I haven't pulled one of my engines in the boat yet (have done many in cars myself), but I have replaced the heads on one of the engines with the boat in the water. Did most of the hard to reach things with the manifolds off of both engines and laying on the engine block of the disassembled...

At 5-10k, it's likely they dismounted and raised the engines. A twin 300 isn't the same as a twin 340 with 454s. There are hoses and components (i.e., those oil and transmission coolers) you cannot replace with the engines in-situ.

Wait until you look into the engine "room" and see the access to things like the hoses that you say are dry rotten, the freshwater pump impellers, the oil coolers and hoses, trans coolers, etc. Not sure on prices, but there's a reason the inboard costs are much higher. The rear of the...

Could you do one 10" in a sealed box in the back corner somewhere? It wouldn't be integrated into the body of the boat, but you can tuck it away in a corner and that would put out a good amount of bass. Look into the JL 10W6V3. You'll want a good amount of power, 300W RMS at 4ohm at least...

I have two 12" JL 12W6-V3s in a center-ported box. The box size is at a height that acts as a nice third seat in the rear starboard corner to go with the OEM bench. It's admittedly overkill, but sounds amazing. The subs are pushed by a JL RD1500/1 and wired down at 1ohm for 1500W to both...

Very interesting system. Not too expensive either. Did you use this to enhance your OEM mattress, or in conjunction with a new mattress?

A little late on this thread, but I plan to do this Tochta mattress (the Utopia model) at some point in the next year or so. Can probably get it pretty close to exact fit with the builder tool. Mine will be chamfered on the upper corners, fillet on the lower corners. I haven't measured, but I...

I think for your boat's overall design/shape, that is a fine looking step, even with the modern oval vents. Mine is much more angular and is tougher to match. Good luck with the step and install. I don't think you can go wrong there. It's going to be a huge upgrade.

Ah, yes, the flood lights and spot light are very different! The wiring for my spot light runs up the port side behind the radio, lights, etc. up to the anchor chain locker in front of the forward berth. They are on the upper port side just under the deck. You can check those wires to see if...

Oh, great. Something else for me to think about buying. Thanks a lot.

If you're talking about the lights under the radar arch, they are wired to the common electrical blocks behind the panel by the helm's floor to the right. You can use a multimeter to test continuity to the cockpit switch on the right lower portion of the dash. I believe they're light blue in...

Yeah, that extra width definitely carries over into the cost of the crate and shipping. Makes sense it'd be a little more. They said about a half day to install with 2 people, so figure 8 hours of labor, which will push yours to $5k, plus your round trip out of the water, which here would be...

I wonder if they do not have a mold for yours yet, because that's a lot higher than mine and it would end up pretty similar in size and shape. I'm just under $3k.

I think this is what Yes, it's just a rubber strip that finishes the edge of the fiberglass. It can be white or black and it looks like they need to reattach it, maybe with some adhesive.

They have them on their website. Yon can look for your model as well. The last picture is the old platform on their example boat.
