    Mid 90’s Campion explorers stringer lay outs

    188 is the I/O models either side of the bilge forward end trace up from the engine mount just below the deck there is a spray of glass over the foam. When wet it starts to bubble up and you can stick your fingers threw it. If that makes sense ? Not sure how the 542 is as I haven’t checked one out.

    What Does Your Boat Weigh?

    According to there website the 17ft runabout is 1000lb, older one like yours I would guess might be a bit heavier but somewhere in that range. So with your engines and gear I would say you would be well under 3000lb

    Double eagle power

    The original owner is an old guy who bought it new then repowerd it in 1999 with the Johnson maybe He just kept the same hp which it originally came with. Boat lived in the interior until the past few years. Personally I'm happy with a boat that dose 25kn not winding the engine out the whole time

    Double eagle power

    Yea I think they did the foam up until the early 90's models. Heard it can be a major issue on a lot of the older ones. this one been trailered it whole life but never know if it has been properly stor d in winter, it's a real shame when you see a nice boat sitting out in the weather
