"Pipebender" visited the Forum on 15 June so you may try a PM to him and see if it still is out there.

Good luck.

Here's another, newer posting. Doesn't mention center or side console nor a trailer but.....

It's in the Bradenton area so you probably get a member to at least get some pics and ideas on finishing. Then again you may not want a project but that might be difficult to find on a model this old.

Also, I'm trying to wade through information on the porta brackets & armstrong on here. i've never seen anyone running one of these porta brackets in the galveston area... they look flippin amazing. wouldn't both of these bracket types be added leverage on the transom? are these only used when factory transoms are beefed up? i get the differences, pros and cons, I just don't know how to tell if it's a good route, structurally. do tell

anyone?

I think while the armstrong is added leverage/torque on the transom- just like the Porta Brackets- if you get the swim platforms on either side- you can spread that strain out a bit more- making the most difference in turns. The Armstrongs are also sealed/ compartments, (on the bottom) so they are going to give you some added flotation while at rest.
