Hey Everyone ,
I wanted to first share some gratitude with everyone to answers all my ( mostly stupid ) questions. After 8 months of work my boat is near finish and i can't wait to share some pictures with you. I probably did more than i should but i really wanted to "resurrect" the boat and give it a second life.
Here a quick list of what we did so far :
- New wiring - New electrical panels and components ( Switches/Breaker,Selector,rockers etc ). - New 2 banks charger with on-board charger. - New VHF Antenna and new UM725 VHF - New custom laser cut acrylic dash - Garmin GPS 943xsv Combo - New lights - New Pumps - New custom seats - New Faria white face with SS Bezel tachometer/speedometer/fuel gauge and voltmeter - New lenco head with auto-retractor - New audio with Garmin Fusion setup ( 6+1 speakers , 400 watts amp and control boat ). - New Dual USB Charger - New T-top vinyl - New Outriggers with Taco GS280 - New Engine repowered with Honda BF250 ( white ).
Basically everything is new but the outer hull paint and the t-top. I'm still attempting to replace the windshield but this is still challenging due to the screws placement. I will come back and share some pictures as soon as the boat is ready.

I always appreciate those who do the work themselves. You now have a knowledge about your boat that no amount of money could buy. If I had more time I'd rewire my boat so I could fix what Sailfish did when wiring it. Hope you labeled it as I keep adding labels when working on the wiring so I don't have to trace a wire twice.
Looking forward to some pics.

Way to go,,, a new sled at a fraction of the price of a new one.
