Ain't that a pain in the ass, LOL. In your image program(whatever you use)from the tool bar just hit "resize"..:D
Or you can get this Powertoy for free "Image Resizer" and just right click on the file and resize it!..

Tim, I might be able to bring it back also. I'm heading to Oregon to deliver a truck and I plan on bringing a 6x4 trans back to Michigan so I'll need to rent something bigger. Maybe with a tow package? I'll pm you my phone # if you don't remember.

My thoughts exactly. It would however make a nice boat for my Son, however I don't think I want to spend that much time and money to bring it back to usable condition, Art, What ever happened to that ditch pump you had lined up? Did you ever pick it up. The price sure was right

Tim, you talkin about the Bisemeyer pumper??, if so yeah I got it. Had a long dragged out hassle with the paperwork to get it all registered(FKN shithole AZ)but I got it all done. Got it all cleaned up and polished, should have a motor in in the next day or so, have to plumb it up and stuff should be in the water pretty soon!...

I know what you mean about the ditch pump(not my first choice believe me) but I just picked it up for the motor it had a nice original LS-6 in it. I'd thought about changing it over to a v-drive seeing how it's a full stringer boat, but the cost is way out of line for what you'd end up with...:(:(

Well, they did come in a v-drive so wouldn't be a big deal to re rig it and they were a decent boat, just $$$$$$ and work to do it would make a nice cruiser!..

Tim I don't understand about the usable condition?? Other than the the motor and a battery it's all there some of the stuff is in the garage, the log manifolds all the powdercoated mounts,the new stainless hose and fittings, the rear seats out because I just rewired it, I re-plumbed the Place diverter with stainless, the full sump pan etc. It ran great when I got it and all I did was pull the motor. If I couldn't have it running in a couple of weekends i'd quit wrenching..:eek:

Maybe usable condition was not the the right word. You said the boat was painted and would need redone $1000-$2000 on the cheap side. A decent big block is going to be a few more thousand dollars as I don't have an extra one laying around. Never sure what your going to get into when rebuilding something but there is always thoes little things. A few bucks to help pay for gas to get it home and I figure I'd be into $7000.00+. If it were a v-drive and I was doing it for myself it maybe a bit different but If I purchased a jet it would be to give to my Son and thats a bit more work and time than I want to put into a boat to give away.

Hell Tim at this point it might cost 7G's in gas to get it to your place. I guess I"m looking at it from my perspective I've got extra motors and a friend who's a great painter and bodyman. Although you could spend an easy 2 grand on materials, I wouldn't,but you could. If it was a v-drive I wouldn't even think about selling it I just don't like ditch pumps. It's funny because I'm dealing with a company that started with a bunch of people from Berkley they build well pumps sort of like a ditch pump only without the foot..:D Jon
