    Scott,

    The boat "Weasel" spent most of its life in babylon. Yes Bill Cullen was the craftsman who converted it to an express.

    Good old Bill. I worked with him at babylon marine in the 80,s and remember leaving about the time the owner decided to. Ut off the salon. Used to work on those seamonsters every year. Tune up and oil changes. The owners kid had a go fast too.

    Looking good. Just remember to make passageways and doors wide enough to remove/replace the appliances if ever need be. Also, you'll need door latches on that refrigerator to keep the door from opening when underway since it points back towards the stern.

    Thanks! I hadn't thought far enough ahead to worry about fridge door latches! lol

    Unfortunately, there's no practical way to make the doors wide enough to remove the washer and dryer. If they ever need replacing, I'll probably just dismantle the appliance and reassemble as necessary. I've done that before with other appliances on my previous Connie. The fridge is counter depth, though, so it slides out the salon side windows once the doors are removed.

    But, of course, these are new appliances, so they'll never need replacing!

    LOL-- A fridge will open while underway in a sea regardless of whether it faces forward or aft. Ask me how I know

    Cool stuff there, Art. I believe those were prior to Nautic buying the Seamaster line in the late 1960s. Still, great engines for their time.

    My latest blog entry brings us up to August 2013, with a set of low-hour Cummins 450 Diamonds sitting in the engine room of my Roamer 46. This boat ought to fly when it's done.
