Tony - I have a 19 Outrage historical question for you, if I may divert slightly from Serge's discussion.

I note that your boat has teak trimmed, square cut shelf openings (which I like) on the inside gunwales. I have never seen this detail before, since most have the oval cutouts, with vinyl trim, or like mine, the open shelving (see photo link)

Since your family was the original owner of this boat, do you know whether your hull number 0001 came from the factory this way, or whether your Dad, or the selling dealership, altered it?

My 1975 boat (#0007500 was originally sold out of a dealership in Kewaunee WI, and it's possible both of these boats came from the same place. Mine also had twin Johnson 70's on it, the twin pilot seats and the outriggers.
