It has some great lines.
What hull is that? Glass?
I'm ready to see how you like a boat that really runs. Those 3.5 tunnels rock and you're going to have a ball.

550, good looking boat...make sure you have some fun :)
OK now, the little rod is for supporting the tuned pipe, which you dont have (or need for now) :) you can safely remove it, but keep it for later.
now bolt it up ;)

Toss that prop thats on it now. Its worthless. To start with, get you a Prather 215 or 220. What prop do you have on the CEN? Post the #'s again because it might work.

That bracket was made for the throttle linkage. In the old days, they ran the cable out and back in a loop to hook it up. Replace it with a clamp made by Du-Bro in the same hole. Leave slack in it for when the motor turns left.
What is appears that what you have is an early version of the hull. They make a newer one that has room for tuned pipes and other motors like the Thunder Tiger and O.S.'s.
DD, I sharpened and balanced a 215 for him that ought to work on it.
