Status: offline 		it says os max 46 and the shaft that goes from the engine to the lower gear drive is also missing. it was a bear to get it off of the boat. the retainers inside of the hull would not hold and there seams to be no way to servise the fuell cell or inside work like routeing throttle cables and stering cables. or serviseing fuell hoses. . thanks for the answer of fiber glass but where can we get them.?

Status: offline 		thanks specialk1 great pictures. i havent seen any of these 3 pieces that i am missing but i cant help beleiveing that they could be very easily in fiberglass. or maby even cast in aluminum. i do a bit of aluminum casting in my gas pumps and a re production of the old dooling tether car. im not sure if we could get a casting thin enough to be efective but we might. look at my gas pumps

Yes, I have seen a few of the bass boats, they have a metal flake gel coat finish. They do not seem to be very common . I think I have seen maybe 4-5 on ebay in the last 5 years. I have a old color catalog of the amps products and there is a picture of it in there. It is a scale model of a skeeter 175. length:38'' beam: 16''. I have several differant boats but not the bass boat. That fiberglass cover looks good, should be a lot better than the standard plastic covers. It looks like the ebay outdrive is missing the transom mount and probably the u-joint.



Where did all of the boat molds go??? None seem to be able to answer that one? Did they get trashed?
