My Rig

#1

Post by Tin Cup »

I'm guilty of 'taketh more then giveth' with regard to this forum and have gained tremendous knowledge from AAB and want to thank everyone for that. I have never posted pictures of my boat so here is the Tin Cup. First as purchased used a few years back, 20' Pacific CC with a (super fugly) aftermarket hard top fabricated and bolted directly to the CC...
258
Then the first round of changes and mods started; added a shelf to the hardtop and mounted the GPS/FF up top, added the console grab bars, got rid of a not so functional storage area in the front of the console that was covered by a mud flap :?: and added the tackle storage hatch. The truck-bed rod rack solved a big problem for me :idea: , and the custom bait board should look familiar.

In early June of this year, another round of minor changes was completed; welded on a grab handle and ladder bracket, finally added bunk carpet isolators. Thanks to AAB, I was aware of the issue and had been meaning to get it done, AT's post prompted me to get it done. I used PVC trim boards from Lowes, worked great and was a fraction of the cost of using HDPE. Also added a 2nd eye on the bow, so that the bow can be strapped down to the frame of the trailer.

Thanks to all :thumbsup:

That's exactly what it is. She runs great, quiet and with a lot of power, 140 is max for the boat. 40 knots @6100rpm, 25 knots @ 4200 rpm. I never have figured out the fuel economy but don't fill her up very often, I'm very happy with the Suzuki.
