First weekend on the boat coming up!

Post by Cain8768 »

We purchased a 2000 Carver 396 with twin 454's in late January and have been redoing a lot of things. Our first weekend on board at LOTO with hopefully everything completed will be 4/29 and we are super excited! We fixed everything on the survey (work was minimal), new electronics/stereo, new LED's throughout the boat as well as under water, new bottom paint, Buff/wax, and new enclosure is being made as I type this. Just thought I would share how it turned out so far!

The boat is currently up at millstone marina but as of 4/29 we will be staying at Millers landing on the other side of the lake.
