Between starting a new job and helping my son rewire the 34ft Silverton that he bought as a project boat I have barely had time to even plink in the man cave. I was impressed when I first saw the boat the hull and superstructure are completely sound with no soft spots anywhere. The wiring was a whole 'nother story with corrosion and brittle wires. Oh yea did I mention that the cabin is a little rough but a little cleaning and a new couch and that problem will go away in short order.
Once we started on the wires we determined that we needed to replace the gauges and tachs for both motors. We finished all the wiring to the flying bridge. Both engines are in excellent condition and we knew from the way they were starting and running that the timing was off a bit. Sunday we got both engines timed and set the idle with a digital tach. Then with both engines at idle we calibrated the engine tachs on the flying bridge so both engines are pretty much in sync.

I work at an OEM that supplies diesel engine powered trucks and boats, and this sounds VERY cool!

Once we finish with the electrical and get the depth finder mounted we plan on a short local shake down run to check out all critical systems are working then we plan on a trip off shore for some wreck fishing. This winter we will get the cabin restored so that next spring after the bottom is cleaned new zinc installed and some minor exterior touches we will be ready for the blue fish and yellow fin runs
