Lenny,
Welcome aboard, where are you located, gas or diesel engines. Don't be afraid to ask questions we have done just about everything that can be done to a 31 over the years.

Hey guys, I have a 1976 31' sport fisher. It is powered with twin Detroit 453's. Motors have about 2200 hours on them. Boat is exceptionaly clean. I just put some electronics on board, Raymarine C120. Looking foward to a nice summer of fishing. I live in Point Pleasant n.j. and have the boat at a marina called Forsbergs. A good old family run yard. A bunch of CRAZY SWEDE's. Bought a Inverter/charger to install, but am still unsure how to do. It is a 1800 watt. Any advise will be well appreciated. Thanks, Lenny " SEA SWEDE "

Welcome. You'll find a very large population of those B31's right around here. We sail out of Bayhead Shores and there are a least another 6 B31's between you and the canal, hell Neil has 2.

If you need to see allot of them just drive over to Carvers, might be 13 or more sitting on the hard there- not counting CHIMERA and CHAMPAGNE LADY sitting in the shed.
