Hi all, I'm Joe from Staten Is. ,NY. I've purchased a 1989 Luhrs Alura. Sadly, this boat is the victim of abuse and neglect. It's my intention to "turn it around". It's fitted with a Chrysler 318 and runs. Everything on this boat is gonna be re-done. The electrics look like Charlottes web. Piece by piece, I hope to restore it to the last boat I'll ever need. It's a labor of love. Now, here's where you guys are gonna be put under the gun. There isn't ( at least I haven't found ) any literature on this boat. I'd love an owner's manual or operator's manual specific to this boat. I'm not afraid to work on any part of the boat ( mechanics, electrics, plumbing ), but I'm gonna need a lot of help and advice. Yep, that's you. This is your family and I'm the new adopted child.

Thanks for everything in advance......... Joe Wiz

Thanks for the greet. I'm gonna poke around here on the site. I'd love the book on that 27' Alura. Without it, I'll have to tear apart everything one piece at a time. It'd be nice to see what the systems are supposed to be doing. Again, thanks for the shout....you'll see more of me.


My drag's set properly...in this sweet land of liberty......sing, baby, sing
