My newest project. 13ft Offshore

I got this boat about 6 months ago. It's a 2001 Paradise 13ft. It's a copy of a Checkmate Playmate. Even though it's a 2001 boat and trailer, it's never been rigged. It has the original MSO with it. I need a windshield for it too. I'll probably have to make one. It sat outside for many years, so the interior is shot and the gel is faded. We stripped everything out of it today. I'm gonna do it up full custom. Probably yellow with green marble flames. I still need to find a Merc 60 for it if anyone knows of one. Preferably the bigger one, 59ci. I think it's 1999 and up. Here's some pics of it before we de-rigged it.




OKAY! So we're all entitled to dream!


It looks like this now

I was told it should run mid 50's. I'm thinking I may do this paintjob on it.

Hey Randy, how about one of those new Mercury racing 60hp EFI Formula Race editions!! That would be a killer package There used to be some pics, and a description of it on the Merc racing website but now its not on there Looks like a bad little dude.
