Re: 16ft Boesch Design Restoration
Thanks Greg, I have learned so much along the way, especially how much you can achieve yourself. The only thing that I farmed out was the laser cutting of the stainless because it was gunna take me too long to build bloody one , gotta have a laugh.

Soooooooooo much fun, first time behind the wheel of a ski boat and now hooked for life,
Boat went amazing, Bloody fast with neck snapping acceleration .
Got the bloody rope around the wrong way on the steering and went straight into a sand bank in the first30,seconds,, was funny as.
Will post some pictures later on,

Well done Damo, sounds like a great day.
You're not the first person to get the steering wrong either, I can remember a club member doing that at Lake Leake a few years ago.
