Hey Fellows,

I've sorted through a few of project pictures I have and thought I would share them. Its been a 5 month project with lots of input from the guys here. I plan on posting a full album when I get done. I'm not great about taking pictures while I'm working.

Nice job Jeremy! It's amazing how much better a boat can look with just a little elbow grease and some scrubbing.

I like the way the teak and the counter-tops look after refinishing.

Is your trailer a Magic Tilt? It looks very similar to mine but maybe slightly shorter. Mine was setup for a Hunter 260 but I've modified it to hopefully fit my wing keel.

I'll find out in November when I pull the boat.

No the trailer is just a regular trailer with bunks. Don't know if a tilt trailer would make it easier. The launches aren't very steep where I am it takes a lot of length to get enough water under one.... Might have to strap it when I launch in a couple of weeks.

Jeremy,

Sorry, I didn't make myself clear. My trailer was built by Magic Tilt trailer company out of Florida. Your's looks very similar.

If yours is a Magic Tilt I was hoping I could get you to give me the measurements of the vertical bunk supports. I'd like to verify mine are at the correct height before I pull the boat this fall.

I couldn't get tell which keel you have. Is yours a swing keel or a wing keel?

Its a swinger. I would love to find a wing keel to bolt on it one of these days. Just replaced the hangers and such and man its a ton of work.

Come on down to Houston and I'll sell you my '89 wing! Needs a bottom job so now would be a good time to buy it and change the bottom paint over to a fresh water paint.
