I'm going to list this boat for sale ($2k) as I'm just not motivated to finish the restore now that I have a different boat. I've already posted on craigslist, let me know if you're interested.

Removed the gas tank, vent hoses and some floor boards without any trouble last night. Next I plan to remove the rest of the floor boards and foam then drill test holes in the stringers to assess...

Cap removal went very well. Five neighbors, home brew, and pictures by my bride. There were a couple wires I found needed cutting as we started to lift the cap off, otherwise it was great. We...

Taking the soft rubber rail off was fairly easy, only tricky parts were where my boat was pressed against the trailer supports. The hard rail that the soft was attached to had lots of screws to...

Thanks, I'll work on bangin' it out for a couple more days then will likely revert to removing from stringers / hull as you mention.

I've been removing the foam with a crowbar, coming out in ~6"...

Thanks, appreciate the quick response

Still looking for advice on pulling out my pylon per the picture above with yellow highlight I added. Is that the right place for applying the PB spray? ...

Cut out most of the floor from drivers seat to gas tank, removing foam, took off windshield and part of bumber btw. hull & cap. I definitely see some wood that is rotten (particular wood running...

One piece of advice to keep you from repeating a silly mistake I made a couple years back...don't ever keep water in your bilge area for the extra ballast it provides for wake-boarding...it seems to...

Two summers ago I first noticed one the size of silver dollar at the feet of the passenger seat. This last summer it had grown to frisbee sized and I found a second near the back seat the size of a...

Mikey...Neighbors indeed, I've enjoyed reading your posts so thanks for doing that.

I had hoped that my two soft spots could simply be patched. I removed the carpet and cut away the floor. It...

Okie & Sybr...Thanks for your help, I'm diving all-in, starting a new thread on my restore...https://forum.supraboats.com/showthread.php?p=29738#post29738

Plan to document my boat overhaul. Boat is originally purchased by PO in MA. I bought it from PO in '96. Since then it has primarily been used in MN with one year in FL. It's been with me through...

Sybrmike...thanks, and I will indeed take a closer look in the next couple days and search on those key words. The other option (I've had the boat for 12 years myself and gotten lots of joy out of...

Sybrmike...thanks for pointing me this direction on dshaff thread, looks like we may be in similiar places. I'm going to pull more of my floor up and see if I find lots of water like you did. If I...

I have an 87 Supra Comp TS6M and am starting to gut it similiar to you. I hope to avoid stringer replacement as so far I have a couple soft spots in floor but engine/mounts seem fine. I'm currently...

Got it all done. It went just like Brian Raymond wrote, thanks a ton Brian. Had a soft rebuild done by Boeser transmission in Burnsville, MN. $425 and it seems good as new. Put the tranny back on...

So I now have the bolts & nuts btw. tran & bell housing (except for two which hit the mounts). How do I disconnect the tran from the drive shaft so that the tran can move back? I believe I have a...

That was a fun post to read as I have the same boat. I've had the boat for 12 years, and over the last few years a couple soft spots have developed in my floor. They're small, and not in foot...

My transmission fluid is leaking and I think I've isolated it to the underside where the tranny bolts onto the engine. It started leaking just recently after I let the boat sit awhile with water...
