Winter project

I have been offered Valiant DR 750 with Verado 250, could be an ideal winter project, have all instruments to put back in as well as spare Verado power steering as well as all DTS, same goes for prop so not much money needed there.

Now I need to find good moment convincing my far better half.... we need to have a RIB again..... will keep me more home (less traveling abroad ) and space not a problem as we have good size toy storage.... which needs to be filled..... (two more cars expected in the autumn )

Or if all fails.... I have found myself a birthday gift

Which muppet let a rib fall into that condition, doesn't look that old and the Verado certainly isn't

As I understand the boat has only been few times on water, engine nut fully run in yet so mainly been used as spares by stripping the gauges, steering and cables.

Both 2005 model year and fabric is Akron

Doesn't look like it needs much work, some electronics in the console and some wind in the tubes and you'll be good to go!

I have all electronics, DTS and stuff needed as I ordered two complete systems with my Verado 275.

Would move the console forward and put two or four single jockey seats, those I would need to buy.
