    • It got up to 81 degrees here today so I pulled the boat out in the driveway put in 10 gallons of gas and hooked up the water hose and turned the key. The engine started right up no water or fuel leaks I ran it for about 20 minutes here is a picture of the gauge readings they all look normal. The next test will be the Lake test.

        • Looking sharp! I also made a couple custom teak pieces for the interior. Got inspired by Waterlogged for the pylon cup holder. The rear engine hatch piece came out nicely as well. Now I need to wire up the stainless steel LED lights in the back.

            I have to agree with you the custom Teak cup holders add that extra touch. The pylon cup holder is a much better option than the small cup holders stuck up next to the windshield on the 190.

            • Time for that boat to head to Heber and take it's place in your garage, await a warm sunny day, like maybe the weekend of the 19/20th for a Jefferson salute . I'll probably put the Limited on the lift first part of May if you want the trailer.

                I will be doing good if I get it over there by the middle of April. and I am still working on the lettering that goes on the hull.

                    Is there a data file for the newer decals? I need to fix mine.

                      It looks like 2RLAKE used the raised decals that are on the newer boats. You would have to purchase these or maybe try to 3D print them.

                        I sent a message to 2RLAKE asking for specifics to avoid junking up RD's resto thread.

                        Prepared to forward any information i receive via PM.

                          I got them from a MC connection I had ... unfortunately he no longer works there

                              Yes, it was a good call. I just bought a set to from Waterskis.com to replace my black ones with brushed. They are pricey.

                              Sorry for messing up a such a fantastic thread. I'm done now

                              • Tonight I checked the fit of the rear cup holder reworked prototype made some changes to the shape the back angle and over all fit. You can see in the photo that every is lined up perfect now should be able to produce the final unit made out of Teak and have a perfect fit. Click image for larger version
