Can't wait to see some pictures of it. Make sure all the wood is glassed and sealed. The box's on mine will be behind the rear seat when the interior is all put back together. I am sure missing getting back on the water

Db440, how is the transom comming along? Mine is ready for the long tow to Nebraska. Then the work will start again and be ready for the water.

There is almost no difference between a 115 and 140 besides the bubble back tuned exhaust cover.
