Yeah they don't want to look like they're promoting Self Protection because in the long run it's all you got brother. Watch the whole video though because you will miss his description of what happened it's kind of eye-opening and a little bit chilling

As usual not on the evening news...

Ron Paul warned us about the Federal Reserve but I don't know maybe nobody believed him but he was right

I'm just building a roof to put my boat under for winter 4x6x16 treated posts are 43 bucks each

Looks like fun GS

It is. Lake we are on is 29 miles  long. Fishing is good.

We got poured on last night with rain I am glad that crap is over.Tent stayed dry inside. But the search is on for a camper.

5 adults and got 36mph out of her! Got 41mph with just me and wife. (GPS)

they all had a wood core in the transom some in the stringers also. use a wooden hammer handle to sound the hull. if its soft it will sound different. i would at least reseal the drain plug and any screws for a transducer.. use 3m 5200. if thats a 185 that was rated at the crank not the prop. the cross flow pretty much has the intake and exhaust port across from each other. a high dome on one side of the piston makes it all work. fuel burn wot close to 20 gph? if it turns out you really like the boat look around for a 150 etec. quite no smoke and burn half the fuel

Was thinking a Merc if i need to replace the motor someday

So which older Center Consoles are all glass….any of them?

My boat is not a center console

I didn't know that the floor I stand on is made of fiberglass solid as a rock

We sure had a lot of fun with this bad boy on the lake back in the day, 1974 Hydrostream with a 454cc chev, my friend owned it. It was to loud for our 300 acre lake. 

 

  

The lake I'll be on for camping is 29 miles long and that looks like a real fast boat pretty sweet

I like the old Chris crafts. Good luck with it gs.

I was eyeballing a center console scorpion a few years ago. Like most old boats they have lot of wood and are prone to rotting but who cares. Have fun until the transom separates and try to make its last run aimed at shore so you don’t have to swim lol

I only have wood trim the rest is all fiberglass

Thats sweet man , looks like she can take some chop. Nice deep V in the front. and Chis Crafts are obviously well built boats 

Thank you she didn't run good when I first got her and then I change the water fuel separator filter which was full of particles and crap and put 60 gallons of non-ethanol High test in her tank and she ran great. I only paid $1,500 bucks for boat and trailer.

She's a little dingy in these pics I had just gotten her home but I'm going camping on a big lake and I'm taking her with me and next Sunday I'm planning on buffing her out

Oh well blaze away...

If it's a known flaw I don't have a problem hearing about it

In an old cross flow cement mixer I guess it doesn't matter much. The old cross flows carbon the top ring no matter what oil you run through them. 

Mine runs perfect you mean the vro engine? Because mine is a vro engine don't know much about them yet but I know I like the one I have so far

Just now, Badger** said:

They will trash it, not like the old's when we showed our stuff. 

Yeah you're right nobody probably wants to look at a nice 1985 Chris Craft scorpion 216

Thanks Badger I picked up a nice boat she's old but she's pretty mint

Any good? The price isn't too bad for a gallon. Going to try it in my 185 horse Evinrude
