Boats I won/ my dad owns
Checkmate 1974 MX-16, Still trying to set it up
Will have 81-82 115 Merc on it

1960 14'9 Lonestar Flamingo 1971 merc 800 with aprox 100 hours on it, Which is a lot of power for a boat under 500 Pounds

24 Playbouy pontoon
Cl 14 Sailboat
12 terry aluminum rowboat with either a 1946 5hp johnson, a 1955 7.5 evinrude, or a 1960 merc 15. The merc is too much motor for a rowboat, and is for sale. when you start outrunning pontoons with 50hp on them in a rowboat you are going to fast. and every time I so much a twitched the boat started swaying

I've bought a 175 merc (225 powerhead) for spare parts and it came with a Bright Blue Glastron Carlson cvx16. Much prettier than my mate but stern was crumbling from water damage. I ended up flipping the whole package to an energetic neighbor at the lake who did an amazing rebuild of the stern with no experience.It cost him 900canadian to have the stern prof.gelcoated plus his own labor on rebuilding and installing the plug hole, sanding etc.My Site is more interactive now.
