I am the proud owner of a surpra saltre 1987 ..The battle Ship of ski boats. When i was a kid i was pulled all around all summer on this type of boat...Loved It then got on now.....This is a little project boat reading all 26 pages and finding out some things...I to have stringer rot..I drilled some holes in it and got at least 2 cups of water out of it..Only on the driver side..I found a soft spot in the stringer fiberglass cleaning the bilge out and i stuck my finger through it..I will cheak the motor mounts with a socket but i dont think it made it there yet..Letting the sun do its thing..
The back lid is rotted doing that job this weekend,and two soft spots on the floor that i can live with through the summer..
Question 1 I need to get the cover off the water in take, the brass is gone on it..i took the screws out but it wont budge.
2 The first fin on the boat has a stane on the fiberglass and it look like the calk is gone on it..How do i take it off and inspect it to see what on the other side.
3 Where do i get the light set up that go under the cup holders there shot...
I have so much more to ask but i cant wait to get out and get the kids and me to skie...And teach the wife to drive..
Thanks
