Nice find, wish you were closer.....I'd love to take a footin run behind that!

Ad says 350 hp, that must be wrong. Probably more like 425 I would think.

Its official. Towed this beast home today. Owner said he didn't know which prop was on it, only that it was a holeshot prop. He said top speed dropped to 47



Will post many more pics when I get it cleaned up from the trip

Congrats! Was hoping it was all going to work out.

Nice!

That boat would look awesome with all the white decals done in Hawkeye Gold!

Nice find. Looks like summer good times ahead for you!

Very nice boat. When I called Indmar to determine if I had an HO 454 or standard 454 here is what they told me. " If the 454 has an aluminum intake manifold it is an HO454 around 400 hp if not it is a standard 454." Both manifolds are painted black. Should be able to check it with a magnet. Here is the parts maual. You can see different part # for pistons, cam, heads etc.

I hope the swim platform is in there somewhere I did see it sitting off to the side in one of the pics...

Yeah its there. It stores better with it removed since its about 3 ft shorter

Kolin,
When you refinish the teak on the swim platform, I suggest you go with the "Three Step Starbright" formula. The teak on yours is just as grey as it was on the boat I wound up with. Looked like a concrete color. This is the second platform I have done, and I feel it works really well. One thing I would mention though; sand the end grains nice and smooth, it improves the appearance tremendously.

If its got the original intake manifold, that is one way to check... but still not the best way. There will be a casting number on the intake that can be looked up online. If its an oval port intake, then its a non-HO. Ifs a rectangle port intake, then its most likely an HO... unless someone put a rectangle port intake on a oval-headed motor.
