My wife shining up the '96 253 I bought in December. I hope to get some water shots soon!

I purchased my 98 Convincor from Boatn70 winter of 2010 and ran it every weekend all summer. Now that the boats put up for the winter I have some time to meet everybody and post some pics. My 2011 winter plans are a red aluminum swim platform and anodized gauge bezels. Next winter after I get it payed off I want to put some real power in it via a 502.

Great lookin 'mate - good luck w your plans to retrofit

[boatn70]

your killing me man......we really missed that boat this summer, the new one just isnt the same!! i hope everything has been well with the boat!
it looks good!
p.s. still have a 502 on a stand.....havent used it yet!

[davis9688]

I couldn't be happier with the boat! Everyone who saw the boat for the first time couldn't believe the way it was kept and that it was a 98. I would like that 502. I seen the procharger and manifolds for sale. Did the manifolds sell? What were you thinking for the 502 and manifolds? Send me some specs on the motor again. I wasn't planning on a repower until next winter but who knows?

ouch that hurts!

Ya, I found out when we got to the beach I only had 1 blade on the prop and 4 plug wires fell off. By the way, which Baja is yours? You can't throw a dead cat across that river without hitting a Baja!

but he could throw a checkmate decal on the side and it would pass for a new checkmate!! LOL.

we need to get that 242 running a bit faster though!
Cale, what was your best run so far?

[davis9688]

62 mph. I switched to a Laser Plus 23P 3 blade

davis9688,
Where did you get the flip up windscreens for your Convincor? I've been thinking about getting a pair for my boat.

Thx,

[davis9688]

Kevin do you remember where you got the windscreens?

[boatn70]

I found the original receipt for those.

i was very satisfied with those and have referred them to many people over time.
