I have love/hate relationship with the boat. There are a lot of things that need to be corrected from the previous owner. I just don't have the time nor money right now. However, I does run well and has a nice stereo so I can't really argue.

Those are nice but I would want a bow-rider like the one I was working on. It was a 1978 Checkmate Trimate III with an Evinrude 200 on it power jack plate and all. All the controls were frozen including the steering, the floor, transom and stringer were all rotted, all the gel coat was cracked, the engine had no compression and at one point caught on fire and took all the wiring with it. I will try to find a picture one I get to a computer I can get to my photobucket from.

What needs to be fixed on yours?
