I wanted to share this recent purchase with everyone here and see if anyone has any comments or advice for me as I go through the restoration process. I purchased this boat at the beginning of October 2020. It was owned by a local marina who used it as a leisure boat rental for the previous summer (don’t ask me why, I don’t understand it either). The port side fiberglass and windshield have some pretty good damage. The story I heard involved an incident with a dock in a heavy storm. This boat has just over 800 hours on the corvette LT-1 which was apparently rebuilt at some point. I’m having the marina look into getting me more information about this rebuild but in the meantime I know that the compression is good in all cylinders. This boat runs amazingly well, it is mostly cosmetic issues that I need to deal with. I have already started removing the oxidation but there is still more polishing that needs to be done. My biggest issue is finding a windshield for it. I will probably make another post dedicated to this issue to see if anyone can help out but if anyone can help here, it is much appreciated. I am also looking to get new decals which I can always have replicated (if need be) by a local graphic designer who did a great job with the decals on my 1994 Maristar 225 VRS. I am doing my best to restore this boat back to the way it was in 1997 because it was already a perfect family ski boat. I'll do my best to post updates along the way.
