Greetings to all.I recently purchased my first jet boat.It's a 1976 Avenger 171.It is going to be a work in progress until at least next summer.I have a lot of work I want to do(or have done).I've been reading this board for a month or so and am learning a lot.I just wanted to say how impressed I am with the people on this board & I hope to learn even more from the voices of experience here...rather than my own mistakes...heheh.Hope you all pat yourselves on the back for all the help you provide.
