Here is my new ride! It is a far cry from what it looked like when i bought it. I have about 50 hours in rebuilding it and adding some extras. If anybody has a fish finder for around $50 bucks please let me know. Speed is not a must because i use a gps. Enjoy.
Also, i need some new snaps for the bimini and don't know where to get them. Any info is appreciated.

[black][size 3]I don't know where you live, but, I think you could find those snaps at Sugarhouse Tent and Awning about 11th east around 19th south or Kirkhams outddoor products about "30 something" south State street(check the phone book or internet for the exact address).[/size][/black]

AFDan52... It runs awesome! I need plugs, but it goes plenty fast enough for a fishing vessel! 27.4 mph with a 2' chop the first time out and 31.4 on glass last monday. She sucks the petro wide open though. I will trade crappy gas mileage for speed and comfort any day. A finder is in the works as we speak and possibly a bow mount.[

Sugarhouse Awning & Canvas will definitley have the replacement snaps and any treatment (waterproofing) that you need.
They have moved out to about 75th. south and State St. though...

Hey LH2 nice work man! I need to upgrade from my lil torturecraft, it get's me on the water but i'd like to feel a little safer when the skiers go by[

This boat isn't big, but compared to my 12' alum. it is like a Caddy! My little boy can walk around and take a nap or whatever and i think i will be able to pull a skier or some really big popgear! lol! Keep your eyes open in fields and driveways, you'de be surprised how many people will let boats go for squat! I found out the easy way.
