Took me and a buddy about 2 days of hard work to finish this... We wire bursh wheeled the whole trailer inside and out... Got it done friday night... Saturday morning we take the boat out to do some fishing.. Start to head up river... We was running around 60mph.. and hit something underwater... Fugged up a 500 dollar prop.... And blowed the lower unit.... Epic fail...

Im totally broke from the trailer rebuild.. Its going to be a few months probably to beable to save enough money for atleast a used lower unit

Accepting donations..(or lower units ).. hahaha
