I like the bigger trailer as you can always trade up :mrgreen: The 50 2stroke is the same motor I used on my 16 ' Smokercraft and it fly's, well untill I put the jet pump on it.
WFFF

Just got done gutting/re-carpeting/re-wiring/re-seating her, unfortunately was in too much of a hurry to take any "before" pics. Anyone know anything about Lifetyme boats? I'd never heard of them until I bought this one a few weeks back. It's about 17', crazy heavy-duty (everything welded, no wood anywhere, hull is 5 gauge, heavy I-beam stringers.)

Nice !

 

[Popeye]

That looks nice. That bow sure looks pointy enough too. You could spear Cap't Ahab's mighty whale with that.

Thanks guys, and thanks for supporting/contributing to this site, I haven't posted much but I have been using the site heavily as a resource during the rebuild. This is actually my first boat, so I've needed a lot of info Luckily, the motor's in great condition (only 140 hours according to the computer, just got the diagnostic software the other day) so haven't had to do anything to it but maintenance.

Take a look at the work boat section,some hulls are like .375 thick.
I think yours might be a Sac-a lait?Which I think translates to "a bag of milk"
Nice boat.

Thanks for the link, I now have an email with pictures into them for more info . You might be right, but I didn't see a good match layout-wise in thier sac-a-lait section and my hull is .195 thick. I think this is either a discontinued model or might have been a custom job. Hopefully they can at least provide me the HP/passenger/weight ratings, as there is no placard with that data.

Lifetyme boats are very popular around the gulfcoast. I haven't seen many recreational models. They are mainly used by crabbers, shrimpers, and in the oilfields. They have a reputation of being almost bullet proof. They have one of the thickest hulls on the market.

NICE MODS.

I think it said they build them one at a time,so theres a chance yours is custom.Sounds like a real solid boat,nice and thick.
