i didn't post this to show how smart i think i am,or to "make fun" of this guy.the idea here was to show what's required to rehab something like this.it takes money,BIG MONEY !!!
here's a quick guide here...
diesel engines,reman,complete engines with gear,cummins "b" series,approx 50k for the pair
shafts,props,dripless boxes approx $3,500
fuel tank(s),rewire the entire boat,repalce all electrical equipment-approx $ 8,000 materials and equipment-no navigation equipment-figure another $15k for nav equipment-see where this is going ? by the time you get done,you spent in excess of $100,000 rehabbing this,there's no cheap way to do this...
