    My wife and I recently purchased a 1989 - hull 075 - 43 Post. We have started, in earnest, the refresh. We know it will be a long process but we are committed to bringing this rig back to it's best potential. We started with the bottom and running gear. I will be posting pictures of the process soon. Happy to share our experiences at any time. #staytuned #MamaCSportfishing....pictures coming soon.

    671 TIB's - 485's with 2200 hours. We were about 100 turns off bringing her over to haul out but I am shocked it was not way worse than that considering the condition of the bottom at that time. I expect to see easily 2550-2600 WOT and I pray to pick up at least 2 knots with reduced fuel burn as well. I will post those numbers as soon as we are back in the water.

    Great progress on the bottom. Best of luck with the rest.
    Your squeezing out lots of ponies with those TIB's.
