Got a 18' Tahiti with a 455 and Berk JC w/ Place Diverter.....she's stripped right now :smile21: But hopefully I'll have her back together within the month. Just got my motor back from the machine shop and getting the hull ready for paint. So everything is gonna be nice and chiny soon :smile13:
Here's some pics of what she looked like right after I brought her back from Cali and what she looks like now....
...right after I picked it up from the docks, dumped it in the water.
...more or less what she looks like now.

Oahu Jim. Eh, it's nice to be out here and sometimes I feel grateful for living here, but you can only go around an island so many times before you wanna jump off. Plus, you guys on that BIG BIG island there got everything close to ya, I gotta have EVERYTHING shipped in for me...that's the chitty part :smile14: But, thanks for the welcome guys!

I was over in Maui last year. I love it over there. We stayed at the Grand Wialhia (dont think thats spelled right) I could get use to that kind of living. My A/C business wouldn't do so well over there though with that kinda weather.

Aloha DJ,
Welcome to the board! Wondering if I might know you? I was stationed on Oahu from 1997 to 2000. Ran around with the Paradise Cruisers (actually, I still hang out with them online!). I drove a variety of muscle cars while I was there (an Aqua 1966 Chevy II Nova SS, a Maroonish Red 1969 Dodge Coronet (Superbee Clone), a Teal 1975 Corvette Stingray, and although not a muscle car, a Black 1989 Lincoln Mark VII (which I used to tow a 19' Bayliner down to K-Bay with). I lived Kahaluu for a couple of years, the in Eva Beach for a year (Got tired of it raining 4 times a day! That really gets old when you have a black car and no garage!). Spent a lot of time out at the track back in the day too, was a member of the 50th State Pro Gas Assoc, Paradise Cruisers, and the Corvette Club of Hawaii.
