His number and pics are in there ^^^shoot him a text, or give him a call. Pretty cool boat had some really good times on it - located at Island Marine.
I can answer some Qs - only limited knowledge on it though
its an old 454 - it hauls pretty well.
It has a tow/eye/hook thing on the back for skiing/wakeboarding/tubing etc…the arch is not suitable for that
as far as removing it - I have seen these exact boats with out the arch - not sure what would be left behind/need to be covered up though.
it looks a little odd in the pics but it never bothered me its kind of a cool look IRL and fitting for the boat/time period
