Shane Thomas...1977 Varmint with Mercury Inline 6 140.
I
bought this boat in 1993 from a friend and it was in bad shape. What
started out
as a little fixing up turned out to be a complete restoration. The first
thing was a paint job: PPG Concept urethane in canary yellow. Then, new
carpet, white Teleflex gauges, hot foot, billet Dino steering wheel, custom
windshield, and custom seats.
The
motor is a Mercury inline 6 140 with a Bob's hydraulic jackplate. The
trailer was
sandblasted and painted & pinstriped to match the boat. The original
emblems were painted and used on the trailer while new decals were made for the
hull. A new Merc V6 will be added soon.
The boat runs in the mid 60's. It may not be the fastest
HydroStream, but it sure looks good!
