Replacing balsa now.The project is on its way,should be able to complete it in the next two months. Great boat to work at :D ...

Those engines according to a 2010 price sheet i found online were $62k each. I bet that cost another 20-30% for labor.

I have been here for some time, I have not sent in my Forum Support contribution but I have to say there is more than one way to support.

Are you for Hire? I have the exact shower that needs a make over!

The company will move 2 vehicles as part of the package.

Well i just have one LARGE vehicle.

We will see. I've gotten estimates from some shippers on uship.com and its ~$3500-$4000 including the arch and window removal/install.

I would feel comfortable using 11x10x3= 330. Round up to 350 for safety then subtract tanks and engines. I don't have a system in my 1975, but did call and talk to a fireboy tech.

I do hear the water levels fluxuate a lot on lanier too. I'm targeting a marina with deep water docks (65-70'), hope there isn't that much movement!

Yeah i almost did move to Baltimore, ended up passing up on it. Atlanta is for sure though, found our last thursday. I'm excited and disappointed all at the same time about this move.
