I just got my hands on a Century 2100 Center Console. I am in the process of restoring it. It's not as good of shape as this one, but it's close. Your videos have really inspired me to completely make it over and restore it. Your channel is AWESOME! I'll never drop new boat money. Letting someone else pay the premium for the new boat experience and me getting it later and enjoying it at a fraction of the cost is my plan. I love to work on the boat. Again, thank you so much for putting out your videos.

@@chrisdembek I'm originally from Missouri, now in Florida. Friend in Mo. had family in Miami. Before he'd go visit them he'd go to all the pawn shops and buy their entire racks of leather jackets. Try to find 450-650 honda or yamaha , his family would sell at flea markets. He'd always pull a boat home and usually dbl his money just pulling it to Mo. Even today I can see they run 30-40% higher there than here in Florida. I live in the panhandle and you seldom see homes without some type of boat, apt complexes even have boat parking areas.
