I been in the background for awhile. Busy, Busy.
But picked this up for $700. 1991 Reinell 192. 4.3L V6/4V OMC.
The guy put a long block in it 8 years ago and used it for one day and then it sat. He cranked and cranked on it this year and burnt the starter up. He said he thought that the motor had seized up.
Well here comes Neil. Got rid of all the bad gas, rebuilt the carb, new plugs, new starter, runs like a top.
Even towed in a Yamaha twin jet that was broke down.

Darn Mark, you let that out for all to read? ;)
213 hrs on the clock and a new long block. New gimbal, all new seals and bellows in the outdrive. I thought this would make a good candidate for turning a little cash, but it just runs and handles so nice! These small cuddy boats are just a hoot.
So any way, yes, O gulp M gulp C gulp!!
I will get some pics posted. Although this is not a glassic and is not even close to fitting into the disco forum.

Well I'm proud of you for being open minded about it! For the reward, you got a gorgeous cruiser, IMO. It may not be a Classic yet, but I'd sure consider hanging on to it. Post your pics right here, I'll stand beside ya'! :P

Here is the interior.
The top of the doghouse and the cabin doors are the worst. But they will recieve "the touch".
