Very nice work, WUTWZAT.
wutwzat,
the Hawaiian looks great, nice job. Big improvement.
I hated thoses glove boxes in the dash. A hell of a hole to fill! Did you go ahead and replace all the plywood behind the dash?
If I remember right that bubble (is that thing 19 feet long, it's been a long time but I think it was a little longer than the southwind 18 splash that we had,) was the only small boat that came standard with full stringers there. They were a pretty stout boat.
Had the old Hornet bottom on it.
Very nice work, WUTWZAT.

I cut wood the size of the holes and filled it in with glass then cleaned it up with bondo / body filler. I layed sheets of fiberglass up over the back of the dash because I wasn't sure how new wood would stay up there, I then worked it smooth so no stray hands would find any sharp edges.
Yeah the boats a 19'01" on the registration but from the transom to the tip of the bow is exactly 20'. I am toying with the idea of letting this project go, know anyone interested. I was recently in motorcycle accident and I haven't been feeling like finishing it anyways. But who knows how I'll feel once the cast comes off.
Its got the new American Turbine pump in it AT-309 with an Alum A impellor, new gauges carpet floors and I have pretty much rigged it all the way down to the wiring already all new and beautiful in looms with the MSD system hidden from sight even. I have a 454 .060 over (468cui) balanced with keith black piston and a stock cast crank which needs to be assembled but fresh from the maching shop. And I have the Harding Marine motor mounts, if I do finish it I think I'll build a rail kit cause it just looks cleaner. The boat was orig brown beige and cooper in a big old metal flake that would make a bass boat blush, but its now white with purple and green trim and all white interior including the 40oz carpet, other than the polished bezels and Auto Meter 2 5/8" Ultra lite gauges and the 5" ultra lite monster tach with recall. Also have the factory hyd divertor and braided lines throughout.

Did I mention that clocks are GAY???
I had a clock, I quicky changed it out for oil temp, probably a better gauge in a jet boat than a clock imho
