1990 Sierra 1700

1990 Sierra 1700 w/4.3L V6

Seems very solid, transom & floors are good.  Everything works, including the original radio.  Seems to start up, shift & run great. 

Most importantly, Nikki loves the layout.

Nope, I've been boatless for 18 mos now I think?  It'll be good to get on the water again.

Barfly was awesome...loved that little boat, but the clear cracking was really growing.  I'm not sure if the top just wasn't supported enough, or if towing tubes was too much for it, or what.   Maybe all the sun time had finally caught up to it and it truly was baking from the inside out finally.  Dunno, sure looked good from 10 ft. though!

Got her home today.  Thankfully it towed really well.

Polished up the top half up and got the interior cleaned up.  Need to vacuum it up tomorrow and polish the bottom half.  So far so good!
