My work in progress... - 04/01/08 08:15 AM

I bought this 1998 Hawk back in Sept. for 5K. I had the motor rebuilt, new SS prop, new carpet, new upholstry on the bench seat, bought new ped seats, three new batteries, took out all the compartment lights and trailer lights, cleaned the contacts and "lithiumized" them before putting them back and waxed the cap. This far about 3K in fixes and upgrades. I still need to put a keel guard on it and would like to eventually get hydraulic steering. Here it is:

If my wife gets her way, I might be doing that soon frown She says that I've already spent too much on it. Maybe since I have to put up with the complaining anyway, I shoulda bought a 40K skeeter.

How long is that thing? With a 200 on the back I bet that thing will cook!

It's just under 19 ft. and yes, it flys. When they rebuilt the motor, the bored it out a bit too. I didn't want the extra speed/gas guzzling but what the heck, it's fun smile
