RESTO 1998 SeaDoo Challenger 1800 Restoration Project

Bezel/face plate arrived as scheduled. after a cup of coffee I went out to the boat to install it... Done...:cheers:

The black bezel looks really good.
I still haven't decided which depthfinder that I am going with, but it is imperative that my boat have a depthfinder because the depth of the lakes/TN river here vary from one extreme to another quickly this time of year. TVA lowers the water level 9ft.

I really like the simple yet functional (less is more) look of the hummingbird gauge. :thumbsup:

jealous...:thumbsup:

Hope to be doing that this weekend with the wife and grandkid. Weather permitting we will dock downtown and go listen to one of the local bands play for a while before heading back. This is the last weekend of riverside bands for the year.

That's awesome, I'm jealous. It was 15 degrees Celsius and rainy here. Did it take your dog long to get used to wearing the life jacket?

Awesome thread and its is wierd that I had a dog named Nicko? I know, different spelling but said the same I'm sure...

After seeing your video clip, I should post the one of the first run we had in our Challenger from putting around to full WOT.

Also, you sir are indeed more involved into the mechanics of the boat than I care or want to be at the moment. I am hoping for another 200 hours on the motor before going into all of that...My hat's of to you, nice work.

Andy you are crazy, but I like that. I'd never go to that extreme to winterize!!!!! Everything sore does look nice and eat-off-of-clean! Like the updates. I also noticed a small spec of dirty you missed.

Hey, I just noticed an earlier post where you mentioned the Stink House. Is that that old fish factory looking place off the south end of LBI by Tuckerton? We went out to the "reef" a few miles out to go fishing there. My son loved it, he caught a star fish and I caught the chum line, kid is still breaking my chops for that.
