Here are a couple pics of my 78 w/ a 460 and a Jacuzzi. I did a complete resto about 3 years ago and its been a great boat. I just did a urathane clear on the brown before Memorial day and it really helped out. F.J.

Cool. That's the 5th Challenger that I know of on this board. It looks like a few of them have Jacuzzi's. Mine has a Dominator. Also, what's the story on the old thru transom exhaust? Was that stock?

Nope, the boat came with Bassetts but the previous owner went with through transom so I swaped back. The funny thing is that this boat was sank twice by the previous owner, once below Davis dam and another time down at Yuma, lol, hence the rotten wood, bad wiring and everything else that I replaced. The through transon deal just made a mess out of all the aluminum so thats the main reason I switched. We have to get a Challenger Regatta together somewhere next season. F.J.
