Wonder how the core and all that noise is?

[Hippie459MN]

Im sure it needs to be replaced but that one atleast has a motor and its about 1000 miles closer to my house than mine was. LoL

I didnt do to bad on mine though all things considered.

speaking of replaced core and nose ... i just picked up a 77 vulture and have no idea where to start it needs transom work and i'm wondering what to look for as far as "core and stringer" damage any advice?

[Hippie459MN]

If its an original 1977 (No prev core work or anything) thats in need of a new transom, I can guarantee its will need a core as well. Might as well do it all to be safe. I did the mallet test on mine and it sounded solid then I discovered it had been repaired with plywood for a core. ugh... lol

If you dont mind me asking, Is it a blue and silver metal flake vulture that you picked up? And Welcome aboard.

i'm in if the vessel is ready to get out by then ...lol

[Hippie459MN]

Im in to and mine will be ready even if I have to sell the kid. LoL Not really but I will get it done one way or another.

Chet, I would love to come down this weekend but I got baby most of it and this not working yet thing is killing me. Got the boat back in the yard though.

Your kid is more important. I bought a 01 150 johnson that I thought it just stuck a ring but after taking it apart found it smeared the piston. I cleaned the block but will need a new piston.
