1989 Supra Saltare
Just spent the last 20 min or so reading through the tread. Great job on the tower, speakers and the look of the finial product.
Keep in mind the biggest killer of these boats is extended time sitting in the water. Can't remember any pics of the rear of the boat. Does it still have the Trapps or flappers on the back. I hope they have been sealed well and do not leak!! For this is the main point of water entery into the foam filled cavities.
Has anyone done a LP conversion for marine applications in France??? As for the trailer the European look seems under enginered to North Americian standards but will work fine.

Nice. It's good to see it on the water. Strange to see everyone wearing coats though!
Great to see your boat come alive, and thats one of the nicest looking Saltares I've seen on this forum. Congrats!!

Thanks everyone !
DAFF, what is a LP conversion ?
The boat had the factory flap, but I removed it and replce by a litle plate, not longer then the boat, with tons of silicon. I did it because it generated a flush and killed a little bit the wake. There is an automatic bilge pump in the boat, and battries are brand new. The boat will unfortunatly stay in water from now till October. I will seriously check if water comes inside the hull.

Congratulations on getting that beautiful Saltare back on the water. You found a fantastic boat to start off with & somehow managed to make it even better. Looks great!

LP= Liquid Propane.....
I would drill a small insection holes in the bulkheads to inspect the condition of the foam. Under the front playpen would be ideal. Dry foam = very happy stringers.
