Hello there. My name's Aaron down here in Port St. Lucie Fl.  I'm a marine diesel mechanic for CAT in West Palm, so for anybody with mechanical questions, feel free to shoot them at me. I love helping a fellow boater out if I can. I've been on the water in Fl my whole life and wouldn't want to go anywhere else. I look forward to meeting some of you guys and maybe meeting up for a day out on the water.

Hello everyone! Just joined here and wanted to share some pictures and info in my recently acquired Aquasport. It's a 1971 19-1 with a 90 Evinrude. Got it for free from our neighbor, it had sat under some trees for probably over 8 years. A tree limb had fallen onto of the trottle and broke the handle and trim switch and the cables had rusted and exploded through the rubber tubing. The hull was completely green from algae and mildew and the deck had lots of pine needles and leaves all over. Got it cleaned up and back to white.

Replaced throttle, throttle cables, steering cable, steering wheel, switch panel, wires to the navigation light, navigation light and dome light. The shift rod to the lower end had frozen up so dropped that and replaced the impeller, unfroze shift rod and serviced the lower end with new gear lube and got it all cleaned up. After sitting for so long I was astonished the engine fired after 1 good long choke and ran smoothly.

The boat all in all seems super solid there is one tiny soft spot on deck right in front of the bench cooler near the helm. The soft spot is probably the size of a baseball. I have taken it out probably 10 or 15 times and have hit some pretty large wakes and have a few hard pop outs and she's been solid as a rock every single time.

Next on the to-do list, source a right side door to the front hatch compartment and at some point in the next few months going to start with a re-paint. Here are some picks!

Thanks! Off Roscoe blvd. runs parallel to the intercoastal. We're about .5 miles away from the palm valley bridge and boat ramp.
