Nice work Bart, If I make it down south in the next month or so I will try and stop by.

Bart. Should have the rebuild kit this Tuesday for the water pump. Hopefully we can get some water time in this coming weekend. Now if Nordic would only start building V-drives ;-)

thats a good question I wonder how much it would cost to build a v drive today the mercruiser packages are getting more and more money.It would be fun to pull out an old mold and do a carbon lay up use nylaboard so no wood you might be on to something

Bart,

you know that Randy has a 60's vintage Nordic flat, it had a 392 hemi in it and was orginal, it could use a good re-rig. I think it would be a good place to start, Maybe you can talk him into pulling a mold off the boat????
