2000 Nautique Super Sport PYTHON!

[NautiqueJeff]

Will do. That one is just about finished. Just need to figure out a little fuel pump issue, but it is nearly done.

[GMLIII]

NautiqueJeff Jeff at the end of the day, I bet you will work out a deal to purchase this boat from the current owner have the Silver Cove restoration is complete.

[NautiqueJeff]

I already own this one, but I won't be keeping it. I have another Python boat on the way that will become a part of my collection.

[GMLIII]

NautiqueJeff Oh I thought you were restoring it for a client. Didn’t realize it was yours

[NautiqueJeff]

This boat got a brand new New Dimensions Flight Control Tower installed yesterday! I had a great experience using them, and they are close enough (only four hours away) that I was able to drive there yesterday morning, have them install the tower, and then drive home the same day. That eliminated any shipping, and made for one less thing for my team to have to do!

The boat is back at our facility now, and we'll be working on it again next week.

Looking good Jeff!

We just replaced all of the gauges on the dash for this boat. The original speedometer and tachometer had been replaced at some point in the past, but those replacements were looking tired, and didn't match the rest of the gauges. We opted to replace EVERYTHING, using our tried and true methods. The new gauges all match, the speedometer uses GPS technology for accuracy, and the wiring has all been verified, with the old blade terminals replaced with ring terminals for a more secure fit, with heat-shrink for added longevity. These new gauges look great and will last for a LONG time!

Today, the driver's seat slides were replaced with brand new units. The originals were in rough shape, but the new ones will make the seat slide flawlessly.

This restoration got put on hold while we were working on customer boats at Silver Cove Marine, but I am determined to get it finished up in a few weeks! It came out of hibernation today, got a carpet scrubbing and a good wash, and it is coming back inside at SCM so that we can finish it up!

New interior is ready to go in. We have had this in the shop for months. Finally time to install it!

[NautiqueJeff]

We pulled the windshield and dash back down out of storage today and cleaned them back up. They're ready for installation now.

Really cool boat. Look forward to seeing the final product.

[NautiqueJeff]

Starting to look like a boat again! It was the right decision to make the main stripe black and the piping yellow instead of the other way around like it was originally.

[NautiqueJeff]

The interior is coming together!
