    Excellent information! THANK YOU!! I made the prorata comment a bit out of context but here's what I was thinking. The fact that the bottom was painted in 2016 doesn't mean it's not ready to be painted again. If it's not, and we'll know that when it comes out of the water, of the $4000 cost...

    They did reach 2800 rpm and held it without issue. Boat come up on plane fairly impressively. The Cat tech was actually a bit negative about this craft from the git go, and that being said was impressed with how well the motors put the boat up on plane. We've already got a shaft seal repair...

There are some questionable things about the boat but it looks clean for all intents and purposes. However, I am also in the middle of turning a boat we bought last year that I...

    You know what, that my "bad". I should have done a search! Will do that and remember to do that going forward. Now I'm acting like I'm also a forum noob but I'm not.

    I'm at the moment, so I should have probably found this forum before now. Have the contract in front of me and looking at a low 300+ hour 450 DA with 3116's and a known single V-Drive that needs to be pulled and repaired - doesn't come completely out of gear as I am told. Fist test fdive...
