Here's a shot of my garage kept Valero YT Bowrider/Merc 175. The boat is all original. I'm getting ready to upgrade the steering and make some changes.

I still have the original front seats. I rebuilt the drivers seat, reinforce the shell, glassed in new ply and just have to recover the viny. The hi-back buckets that are currently in the boat are JEGS racing seats. They give alot more support than the flimsy original Stream seats.
