adding a bridgeport to my ventura

[dnr78]

just when I thought the boat was finished I wanted to go faster so I bought a 245 efi bridgeport
to strap to the Ventura so.........off with the Johnson, out with the wiring,gauges,fuel cell,and the single cable steering,going with dual cable, and we extended the platform to mount a larger gas tank and the trim pump and added some supporting gussets, the battery wil be moved to the front,behind the bulkhead.that will also house the speakers/amp and other stuff
so now the parts are ordered and trickling in, the boat is preped waiting for grinding and some glass and parts

Uhhh, hate to be the wet blanket here, but that's an awful lot of motor to put on a boat with an original looking core and transom.

that part of the construction happened one season ago, thanks Bill@ Bottoms Up, this year i can afford the speedy part
So tomorrow and thurs we grind and glass so I can have linex spray down a floor, i sell carpet but I hate it
and the parts trickle in, least important to most


that my custom trick bracket

what a day it took 7 hours to get every bit of glue off of the floor and 2.5 gal of laquer thinner
not hard work....i think , i took pics but must locate the camera to post pics
then i fitted in floor drain covers
monday we go to line x for a fancy new floor,not 100% on a color i got a day and a half to figure it out
then s...lets just take it one day at a time

The longer I thought about what color to paint my boat the harder it was, I ended up deciding on the red carbon as I ordered it.

yeah the pressure builds quickly for choice makin
probably a maroon with light gray or the opposite
