Repower Project

[nedarb2]

alright, so just about everything is hooked up now, but the dealer forgot the ignition cable from the keys to the engines [V] so were waiting on those. Binnacle is mounted now (no pics sorry, will get more the next time im home from university working on it)
That rigging hose really makes it look slick, the yamahas just had all their hoses and wires bundled together going through. Really cleans up the back.
We havnt hooked up the hoses or electrics to the etecs yet, but there all there, were going to wait for everything to be fed through (waiting on ignition cable) then do it all at once.
Theres the fuel and oil lines, oil reservoir pumps power line, battery/power cables, and to the starboard side the hydraulic lines to steering.

nothing new to report yet, ill be home next weekend to put in a day or two which should get me very close to being done, i figure another 8-10 hours and ill be 100% done and ready to go fishing

panels for the gauges and ignition are being fabricated up right now with anodized aluminum
Boats in the shop feb 22 to be checked over, then fishing baby
will get some more pics up early next week
were also now needing to repair some of the steering parts which were pitted/seized from removal.

to our surprise ignition cables an harnesses were not included with the rigging kit.. go figure, so we had to buy those.

sorry this has taken so long, i got mono over the break and got totaly wiped off my feet, but we got it all done!
All thats left is mounting the gauges on a back panel and mounting the panel to the dash, aswell as hooking up the steering with parts which still havn't arrived.

The Finished Product

Hooking up the control cables - that binnacle was about 750$ - money never looked so simple [xx(]
