Well, it's official. I took delivery of my 1981 Mako 17 Standard earlier today.

From what I can tell, this hull is in excellent condition with the exception of the transom. It has already been gutted and is awaiting reassembly. Decks and gunwales are solid all the way around and every piece of foam I can touch is dry as a bone. The gelcoat looks like it will shine up superbly with a little elbow grease and I don't think it's gonna take much to get the motor (1981 Merc 115 "Tower of Power") running and looking good.

Many thanks to Chris (aka bondstreet on ClassicMako) for helping me load and unload everthing this afternoon. :)

Nice looking boat... keep us updated on progress... just because it's not an AS doesn't mean we don't want pictures! After all, I post up on the CM site...
