Bracket on, trim tabs on, back in the yard.



















My 95 2500 suburban had some piston rings give up so I had to replace it and needed a piece of flair. Obviously outboards won't be happening as soon as I was originally planning.

Looks very nice! Excellent tow rig too!

Coastal Fiberglass did the work on the boat. I would highly recommend them to anyone in the mid atlantic region. Great work, would call/send updates/pics, very good pricing.

Till I towed the boat home with it, I didn't realize what I was missing with the 95 burb. Heck I was lucky to get 8 mpg with it, usually 6 mpg towing. Drove an hour home and the 6.7 sat at 13.7; isn't even deleted yet!

I noticed with my truck if you forget to put in tow mode gas mileage is horrible. In tow mode I get 13-14 mpg but not in tow mode got like 8 or 9 mpg.

Very nice project. What's up with the kitty litter in post 36 though? Something abuot drying something I'm sure, but what?

Bracket look great as does everything else. Don just let me know my bracket its ready to go. Mel and I are heading down Saturday to pick it up. I have angst about tearing my sled down but I look forward to getting back on the water afterwards. I'm having a pro do most of the work for me as de- and re-rigging will be a big enough project on it's own.

Sandwiching two pieces of coosa together. I kept the original thickness of the marine plywood but its all coosa now.

Does anyone have a good wiring diagram of when they re did their boat? I've found some very generic ones on google, but I know some off you have done this before and I would rather not re-invent the wheel.

Bilges, auto switch, and a few other things are on the way from Amazon. If you haven't taken the time to use Amazon to find boat parts, you should. They don't have everything but what they do have is usually much cheaper than other places online and free 2 day shipping with prime.

Boat's new home. It sure is nice to not tear up the yard moving the boat and not having to clean the dirt/mud/grass/etc. out of it every time you climb in. I'll get a few more pics once the sun is up tomorrow.
