Pulled the trigger on the etec (w/Pics)

Buckley...PM me for details on best way to leave that beauty to me in your will... 8) ...what a nice boat...let's see some MORE!! ... ;D ...



...and Slinger's BETTER be QUIET!!... or his wifey might hear it :o ...Sshhh....
 
Nice boat and new motor buckley, when i go bracket one day I might have to get me one of those. We would love to see some pics of that dash. And if your around once a week or so, put a post up so we know you are here ;D
 
I have some pics posted in my gallery (v-21), but I'll take a bunch more of the dash.

This year I got a slip closer to my house in Matawan, NJ, and am keeping the boat on the Raritan Bay (lawrance Harbor). There are shipping lanes, tankers, NYC harbor, Statue of Liberty, etc,  nearby. I have a 2 1/2 year old daughter and didn't want to be tooling around in a 12 year old outboard and have it conk out on me.  It's one thing to get stranded in the barnegat bay - another when the Queen Mary is breathing down my neck. Plus, with the boat 10 minutes from my house now and Sandy hook  25 minutes away by boat, I knew I would be out a lot this year.  Been saving for years for this - actually sold my 65 impala convertible a few years back and earmarked the money for the engine.  
 
Yo Buck sweeeeeeeeeeeeet! Thanks to you I can't get up from here for a little while (got wood) :-[ U too Slinger :P

I want to know your fuel numbers once you establish them 8)

Very very nice!
 
Buckley,

I just finished going through your gallery. Now I need to go and pray to confess my sin of covetousness!!! I think that was the first and last time I'll look at that gallery. ::)

That is a beautiful boat.

Yea Buckley, that is my stomping grounds also, launched out of that ramp dozens of times a year.
Hopefully I will see you out there this year, if you see a camo G3 boat in the bay or a 2550 Maycraft Pilot House swing on by and let me see that pretty V up close.
You did good buddy, real good ;)
 
Thanks guys! I'll post a fresh group of pics either tonight or tomorrow. Here is a previous picture I loaded up on photobucket. This is of the old, pre-etec controls.

Oh, that. The guy I purchased the boat from built it. Not sure what's in it, I never opened it.

Just kidding. I'll post some pics with a description of the set-up. It's not starboard, its like white plexiglass. Keeps prying eyes off the electronics.
