Just got my 1986 Biddison 1800 in my driveway here in Baltimore. It has not seen water in 5 years. Bought it from a guy in Okeechobee FLA. Looks like a little elbow grease and I will have her in great shape by the spring.

Usual things need to be done. Rewire the boat (need help with this one, Anyone out there want to make some extra money on the side, but i want to help so i can learn), needs a new windshield, new leaning post, new electronics (still trying to see what will best suit me), just needs to be scrubbed and polished and waxed.

I do need to repower it with a Clean, used 150HP 25" shaft with all new controls. Prefer a Yamaha, still looking for one. Not in a real hurry.

I like to do what i can myself, to save $, but also to learn about the boat.

Anyone have any suggestions of online stores or ideas. Looking for good deals out there. All would be appreciated.

I just cant wait to get my family out on it. Its a HUGE 18' CC with an 8' beam and high gunnels. She's nice!

Happy New Year all!

Sounds like a nice buy, I can take care of all your upholstery needs. Coaming pads, console cushions.
