For me
I want to get stainless steel bars to replace the straps on my bimini top and my normal service. What shop should I take it to?

I thought you had a great experience with Magic :rolleyes-new:

Since your boat is in Parker I would take it to AJ Barrett in Havasu.

Bringing my boat back to Carlsbad so WOT Marine can do the annual service. Based on the work Kyle did last year I will trailer it home from Havasu each year.

I just broke in the cam on my wife's boat before we got hit by winter, so I still need to put the final touches on it, the other two need full restoration.

We are going to be heading down there in the next few weeks to do a site visit and see what they do there. Great people!!

I need to get my trailer redone. Not looking forward to that at all. But it needs to be stripped and either painted or powdercoated.

The boat's good to go. MEFI 4 last year and a few other goodies. Was gonna bump up the stereo, but who the hell wants to listen to tunes when you got the sweet sound of 825HP roaring in your ears :calm:

If timed correctly, you can do a shop tour and a review on a Ultra 26 deck boat. If interested let me know.

SCX drive for sure. Hopefully dial in the variable boost setup so I can have three different tunes. 110, 91, 87 switch on the fly without changing pulleys.

I had the rear hatch vinyl replaced after the stitching was starting to come apart. "In Stitches" in Havasu 3005did the work and I was very pleased with how it came out.

Thank you. They copied the original design. I thought about changing it up but it looks right with the rest of the interior, which is in very good shape.

Interior getting a refresh, IMCO SCX-4 Drive is at IMCO getting a refresh, purchased a new SCX-4 lower it's headed to Wilsons to be blueprinted, after 2 years I finally got off my a$$ and redid trailer brakes, it's nice to not have the slamming when I stop and go, but whats nicer is to have "Brakes"...:smilies_mit_hut029:

I would be interested in the lower blueprint, performance gains, and cost of the service if you don't mind sharing that.;)

I run a Rootz EFI blower injection system with the fast xfi 2.0 marine computer. Its a great system and the computer works great. I run closed loop with a full time o2 sensor.

Blueprinting from Wilson's is 2,000 per lower, from friends that I know that have had this done, it's a night and day difference as far as speed I have heared anywhere from 3 to 8 mph, put it this way Buck @ Loto made a 141 are 142 pass in the shootout with a stock IMCO SC lower they pulled the stock lower and installed the blueprinted one and he went back out and laid down a 148 are 149 pass, very impressive

I think just tune up, tires, and go. I re-did the bearings and brakes on the trailer last year. Maybe in winter 2013 I'll be able to build an engine.

Buying one. Does that count as an upgrade? Probably a toon!

Nothing much to the boat, but a new dolly trailer from Roke trailers, and a enclosed
