Hello, I'm new - (1973 West Wind Speed Boat)
Hi there,
I'm new to the forum and new to boating in general. I recently moved across country to Florida and sold a pair of SeaDoo's before I did. Once settled in, I was looking for a replacement water craft(s) when I stumbled upon and fell in love with a 1973 West Wind Speed Boat (Same as a Checkmate MX15) - It is currently powered by a 1974 Mercury Thunderbolt inline 6 "Tower of Power". To the best of my knowledge after taking it out a couple of times is that it is running fine. It's had the spark plugs, impeller, water pump, distributer and fuel lines replaced as well as the electrical. For the most part it's a ton of fun on the water. I just want to make sure that I keep up with it so I can extend the life on her.
Anyway, just wanted to say hello and that I enjoy the all the cool boats around this forum. If anyone has suggestions on resources or groups that I could benefit from I would appreciate any help!
Thanks and happy safe boating!
