Maverick904 Posted August 29, 2021 Report Share Posted August 29, 2021 The new to us 1994 18.5 MA lives on. Took her out for a 60 mile round trip cruise to grab some lunch today. She certainly is sweet. Added LED navigation lights and an Ipilot. Waiting on batteries and figuring out a new GPS Setup. Loving this thing.

Maverick904 Posted July 23, 2023 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2023 Well life has certainly gotten busy and I completely forgot about the forum. Happy to report is the boat is still great. Getting fished regularly. And some changes/upgrades have been done. We removed all the metal work and sent it to Sarasota linex to be coated (we did remove the two trolling motor ears that were originally welded to the platform) Steering wheel has been paracord wrapped black. She is now sporting all lithium batteries. Massive weight save there. Completely rewired from bow to stern with all new pumps and accessories as well as a new switch panel! Also running a Simrad GO7 And finally. She’s perched on top of a sweet Owens and Sons Trailer! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whichwaysup Posted July 26, 2023 Report Share Posted July 26, 2023 Man, that is fantastic! What a great find - one in a million. Great to see her looking even better. I will be curious how that lineX will hold up, I've thought of doing something like that as well, and flaky powder coating drives me nuts!
