Great Job..... I bought a 1987 Bassmasters Classic 373V with a XP150 hanging on the back brand new. Sadly, in 2004 it burned up in a boat shed fire....It would have been a slightly bigger rebuild job.... Once again..Great Job.....

Wow, good job. I have a lot of those items on my want/to do list also. Couple of questions if you don't mind: where did you get the elec. fuel switch and was it always mounted by the tanks? Mine is mounted on the transom with a hose coming around from under the seat from each tank. The switch by the tanks with only one hose going to the motor is a better idea. When re-carpeting how did you find/reuse the holes in the lids for the hinges and things? Thanks, David
Fishin' for fun!

where did you get the elec. fuel switch. http://www.oreillyauto.com/site/c/detail...0&ppt=C002540$ with lifetime warranty! was it always mounted by the tanks? Originally it had the big knob under the seat. It was kind of busted up from previous owners and didn't want to reuse it so I replaced it with this. When re-carpeting how did you find/reuse the holes in the lids for the hinges and things? I cannot take credit for the carpeting my brother Ragin Cajun did it. But he started with the lids and was able to see the holes from the back side. He used a pointed scratch awl to push thru from the back side so the hinge could get started on one hole and once 1 was lined up all the others were pretty easy to line up.

Getcha a replacement bow step pad from Ranger. I got one last year when I did my clean up and it really is a nice addition to protect the bow - and give you a safe place to step!
