248 Offshore...my dreamboat since I first saw one!!....:pray:

This is gonna make somebody a very nice boat!...Pete did everything right and powered it with an AWESOME powerplant...fuel economy and POWER out the wazoo!...The time I got to spend on her were never enough...and the ask is well worth the get.

Looking back at the restoration pics of the Pipe Dream is like a stroll down memory lane...she's perfect! Can't recall if that was re-gel coated or painted?...whichever...would you do the same again, given the choice?

The "Pipe" has been one of my all time favorites on this forum since day one...a real heartbreaker...my hope is you can breathe new life back into her...

I recently heard about cleaning, deoxidizing then applying an oil to finish and rehydrate the surface and slow down the oxidation process. Actually heard motor oil...tried a large area on mine with mineral oil buffed out...WOW! The guy I heard this from has been finishing his Whaler w/oil for...

I wonder if I should have one squirreled away in case mine goes down...more and more finding parts Yam has discontinued...:cry:

Yeah...I took a little break for a while, too, Rob...just picked up one simular to yours...an 87 cuddy w an 87 Yam 150...lovin' it!...:drool:

Did Wellcraft go to a Eurotransom by 1999...if so I always thought a terrible waste of cockpit space, particularly on a 20' boat...and what is deadrise on the 1999 210?...the V20 is 19* if I remember correctly...that will be a consideration of ride quality... But I'm with you on dual console...

Will do, Spare...appreciate it...:sun::sun:

Where is it?...I'll have to find it...can I unstick this one, or should I get a new one?...:head:

Ferm, when I shut it down and take the cover off, the top of the heads where the T stats are is VERY hot..leave the cover off for 15 or so minutes, try the ignition til the horn doesn't sound and she'll run great.

Lovin' this motor, but it's run hot twice now while trolling at idle speed. Before I picked it up, it got a new water pump and T Stats, so scratchin' my Levis over what's causing this. The real puzzler is it trolled for hours one day and did not overheat. Any ideas?

Phat, with a round trip to NJ and back to SC ahead of me and knowing my old bias ply tires were cracking between the threads, I bit the bullet and got Carlisle Radials and new Timken bearings on all 4. Could not be happier with result and highly recommend going radial over bias ply. After doing...

Trailer still available...$500...youre stealin' it...LOL!!

Blown off course due to top up?...not even when I had a full set of side curtains

I'll look forward to meeting both of them...Oldest getting married down the 1st week in May...I guess I'll go down for that...LOL!!...:hi:

GREAT pics Slinger!!...I reely enjoyed being back on Barnegat Bay w/you guys...not to mention dinner Sat night at the Dutchman w/everybody...Drivin' overnight Friday night was a piece of cake...took 14 hrs to get home Sunday w/all the construction along the way. But seein' y'all and gettin'...
