I have a new project.


















[IMG]
http://i137.photobucket.com/albums/q222/samh65/Boat/100_1058.jpg[/IMG]



The boat is a 27 ft. 1970 ChrisCraft Commander. For 37 years old its in real good condition. To put it on the water I need to kit both carbs and change oil in motors and transmissions. Other than that I want to change out the head, add new electronics, and some cosmetic stuff.
Any donations would be much appreciated.;)

How much HP do the chickens add. At least you can get fresh eggs. That is one big boat.

I've always been told that the cheapest thing about owning a boat like that is the initial cost!
That sure looks like it will be fun though.
Good Luck.
