still gotta put something on the bare fiberglass and fix a soft spot right in front of the console, might have to pull the console unless I can hold it up with my overhead hoist while I do the repairs??? gonna have to realy get into it once I get it back at my shop, when I had it last days off I was mainly concerned with seeing if the motor was good enough to buy...got it runnin good enough to see what I wanted then brought it back to his house..

cant find a price of it or do you have to bring it to them, a dealer required product..I was checking out tuffcoat from Cabela's and they have some dotted stick on flooring too I was thinking of putting on the front and rear deck, the price is good at Cabela's..

We had a 1990 21 ft Kenner with Johnson 140 Nice boat ran 42-45 mph.
My nephes now has it ans is in process of replacing the deck due to a couple of soft spots. I'd say it sounds like it will make a good starter boat. Definitely, go more pitch, I think top RPM is 5600on that motor. |

my father-in-law has a couple stainless evinrude/johnson props layin around, I think up to a 24 pitch should beable to get it right with one of 'em. Should roll pretty good, im guessing around 50 or a lil better. 2 more days and im flyin in cant wait to go pick it up and start workin on it!

This guy has just recently started a 21 Kenner rebuild. Got the trailer looking good now onto the boat. Maybe you 2 can compare notes.
