The ugly duck is back.
« on: October 12, 2024, 05:08:08 PM »
A few of you can remember the 75 cv18 I did a few years back we called the ugly duck. It even made the calendar a few years ago.   Well my brother bought it from me and have only been able to use it a few times without having trouble with the volvo outdrive.  So its time to get rid of it and put a mercruiser in it. Got it all removed and the new transom ready to install.   
If anyone out there wants the old volvo out drive let me know, we will be happy to let it go for a very reasonable price.
