Thanks everyone for the flowers, It is actually a very dark blue, almost purple metallic. It looks awesome in the sunlight. I will send some water/action pics as soon as this damn frozen tundra thaws out. As far as keepin' it shiny, I can't take credit for that,I just bought it last Oct. Hopefully a good waxing every now and then will be enuf. Thanx, Chris for posting the pics!
Could anyone tell me the best place to get exhaust tips and maybe checkmate lettering for the coves? All the boat shops around here are Barge and tin can dealers. Maybe a website???
 
Wow man, your new toy looks killer good!! Have you run her yet? Your lucky you already have thru-hull exhuast, i bought my Enchanter back last August and am still looking for someone to help me convert her over from prop to thru-hull! If your looking for tips, try CP Performance Marine (cpperformance.com), thats where i was looking at gettin them for my boat. Sweet boat, you'll have loads of fun with it!!
 
Man that boat is SHARP! nice job
is it 18'?
It's good to see more and more mates from Mass!

17' predictor 1989 w/ 135 tower of power

i am looking for a bigger checkmate perhaps a 21'

you shuld be able to get the lettering from the factory? I hope you got a s/s prop for that baby! It is a very sharp boat!
 
wow,

that is one heck of a clean boat and for an '84, that is an incredible finish....I have a '96 Pulse and it doesnt sparkle like that in the pics I have!!!! that's a beauty boat....anyone else like me and starting to get that itch to do some boating?? The weather is warming up and the snow and ce melting/thawing! I can't wait...

I had to order some decals for my boat and I just got them from the dealer, but they should be easy to get through Kip at the factory.

B.P.
 
It's been repainted within the past couple years. It has a stock(as far as I know) 350 mercruiser 5.7 260 horse. alpha one. Had it in the water last fall for only 15 minutes. Ran real nice and felt very strong. Speedometer was not working at the time. ( later found pitot tube off of back of speedo). Had it running here in driveway today. Runs beautiful. Idles and revs better and smoother than the 5.9 in my '01 Dodge! Sent a video to chris to possibly post. Maybe he can let me know how to post a link if he can't put it up here. Hope to have water footage within the next 2 weeks, waiting for the river to go down.
