[quote=nacra55][quote=leeboweffect]My conclusion is that this boat has the shorter, incorrect straps. Comments please.[/quote]
That's possible.
On the 5.5, 5.8 and 6.0 there were front straps and rear straps, maybe they are the same on the 5.0 and the straps are reversed.
Beam bolts are torqued to 16 or 18 lbs, I can't remember, its in the old manual. I've seen lots of boats were the bolts did not pull the straps down tight to the hulls. Be careful with the beam bolts, it's easy to strip the threads inside the hulls.[/quote]
