I can do a universal and steering shaft to the floor and keep the cable out of the way. I want to fab up a mini center console and mount it to the back of middle bunk similiar to Kory's setup. I have 59" from the pump flang to play with. Only real limit on where the controls go is the steering cable from the Doo. Used a flap wheel on a grinder to buzz the rivet heads off for the rear bunk seat and got it out of the way. Removed 100 odd deck screws (the wood kind) to get the old wet plywood and composite boards up and gone.

I have some fenders from a 55 gallon plastic drum to install sometime too. We stripped thirty odd lake and state stickers off the sides from the PO and then polished it out last summer. Hope to lose an inch in the water when done. The water lines show 7-8" at rest as it was. He wanted to go fishing instead of work on it. Oldest son Matt taking the rear swivel seat off. No reverse though.īoat is a basic MV1448 Alumacraft that the PO wooded down pretty heavy that had a Merc 9.9 that struggled to get it on plane. Pump is a 140mm with vertical trim stability. Motor is a Rotax 720, 718cc two cylinder two stroke, oil injected 85hp beast.

Missing the starter, exhaust, and the flywheel was broken free from the hub so the timing was a bit off. Spent the last month getting the motor up and running. I'll try to flesh this out this weekend as I get time.ĭecided last summer to do this to my boat after having a 1995 Seadoo XP given to me as dead. If requested I'll copy and repost either thread here. Here's a link to the build on PWC today where I went for the motor info and put the rest of the build up for their pleasure. I did the boat build on which is hard to view without being a member. Taking a 1448 and turning it into a 1648 with an 85hp IB jet. I have a early '90's Bridgeport CNC vertical machining center in my garage to make the cool parts and an aluminum spool gun for my Miller 210 to put stuff together. A couple months before getting the 1448 I had a '95 Seadoo XP given to me to play with (no title, missing peices). The river is shallow so a prop boat doesn't go very far. last July 4th to fish the Potomac River around Washington County, Maryland. I bought a '92 Alumacraft MV1448 hull that was converted to a decent bass boat, 9.9 merc prop, 33lb Minn Kota trolling motor, decents seats etc. Got an invite to post my seadoo conversion as a thread here from one of your members.
