Default Anyone care to help

I recently bought an pretty decent boat from an price i couldnt turn down.....after getting the marina to pull the boat we noticed the back deck were my transom bolts to is warped thus letting my outboard hang to far into the water...the wood is also rotted and isnt the correct type..not marine rated so yea...i risked droping my nice new 75hp motor into the damn lake...



Anyone care to help me move this bitch off the boat so i can replace the wood decking on the back.....


Any anyone know were i can get sheets of aluminam instead of using marine grade wood...


I also need to finish installing the sound system....the guy took his head unit out but left the 3 subs and 6 speakers in...i just want to clean up the under deck wiring harness etc..



Thanks!!

Pizza and drinks will be there for the helpers

I can help with the stereo installation. Check with B&M Sheet Metal about the aluminum.

As for moving it, I'm not sure how much help I'd be...

I've always heard the two happiest days in your life are the day you buy a boat and the day you sell that boat...

You got a real winner on your hands. I'd back out of it if you still can.
