After much thought about selling my 2655 and buying a larger boat I decided to just keep mine and put some money into it and get most of the features I want. My father dropped my boat off this Friday to have the work started. Since im still in Afghanistan I cant do the work work myself, im having it done. I was quoted a very fair price for all the work listed below. My motor wasn't winterized properly by the last owner and the water jacket had 2 cracks in it, I would have water in my bilge and didn't figure out what the issue was until 6 moths after I bought the boat. So im getting a new long block. Going to keep the old motor and see if I can get the block fixed and keep it as a spare. I just bought a used Kohler 4K genset and that is getting installed as well. A mermaid 9K BTU A/C is also on the list. New carpet, and interior upholstery. Since my boat is paid off why get into debt over a larger boat when I can make this one just as nice for not too much? He will be sending me some pictures of the work as he goes along should get the first set of pictures tomorrow and will post them. He said its going to take 3-4 weeks to complete. Cant wait till I get to use my boat again. Also looking for some input from all of you on the pattern I should use for the interior. I'm getting rid of the late 90's flower pattern on my upholstery. Once im back home I plan on some new counter tops as well. This isn't a completed project yet, but wanted to share the progress with all of you as it goes along. After all this work think my boat will like new, I cant wait.
