60" Dumas "Miami vice" offshore boat

[Make-a-Wake]

Thought i'd start an actual build thread as the other was just a pre-mature sneek peek thread with no progress.

Got this off of Ebay from a man who passed away, his buddy sold it to me and it came originally with a nice OS engine in it, i dont mess with gas so out it all came.

The outdrive is a nice scale 'cast' unit that is adjustable.

This is a sport boat excusively and I will target mid 40's.

Got my sleeves rolled up on this baby now that the Pocket Rocket(Mini sniper) is done.



This one is only for Sporting/Fun...............so it's gonna be pretty..............ya know blinged up a bit, my other boats are all rather stark/utilitarian looking.
