The Navy has given me a busy schedule and my boat is just sitting with all the other items.
45 in Dumas Deep Vee with stand, not to sure of the condition it is still awaiting pick up from the movers that shipped it from Turkey. The hull had been sanded and repainted from the Mercedes dealer in Turkey. He is a friend of mine that wanted to help.
OPS 90 w/ extra new carb. The engine comes with lots of extra gaskets and pieces that were shipped with it to me. It ran great the time that I had it in the water, then the steering servo went blah and I had to go swimming for it. New steering servo, I found that the cheap ones that they sell in the kits don't work. Need to be installed. All of the linkage, basically a complete turn key set up, just not sure of the hull when the movers packed it they did a good job, but it has been in transit for a few months.
Surface drive twin rudder set up from Marine Specialties in Houston, with flex cable and shafts, the nice set up that they sell on their website. New Radio Control, battery and charger, radio box and antenna, electric starter w/ new belts, glow starter w/ extra plugs.
I spent allot of time and effort, like everyone does, but with being on the DDG it leaves no time for the toys. I will post picks of all of the items. I bought most everything via eBay and trashed all of the old stuff and started over. Thought I would post it here for the guys that helped me the most when I needed answers.
It won't be given away, but it won't be expensive either.
Hope you all have a great Christmas, hope to have it unpacked sometime next week or two.
Thanks for all of you advice!
