I'm in central Idaho and I just picked up a 1970 Sabrecraft. 17 foot with a 120 Mercruiser. She has cleaned up nicely. Neil Check this box to be notified of replies to this topic.

(Different angles, interior shots, etc.) She did clean up well. Check this box to be notified of replies to this topic. Note: BBcode and smileys are still usable.

The guy thought the water pump was out and he tore the head off the engine. That was back in 1985. It sat for that long. Turns out the thermostat was junk. This thing runs like a top.

I intend to just keep polishing and using it.
I have never totally restored a boat to the caliber of some
here, but this being my third year on the water, I can sure
appreciate the hours and work that has been spent. I feel like
I am just in the tadpole stage.
But you have to start some where so this may be the one that
gets the complete overhaul.
Here is another shot. The date on the pic is incorrect.
