    Posted: July-19-2021 at 11:47am
I have a 1985 Barefoot Nautique which is apart and getting ready to put the engine back in.  I'm wondering if anyone has pictures of their Barefoot Nautique engine bay so I can use it for reference.  Unfortunately the person that took it apart did not take photos so want to help make the reassembly an easier puzzle to solve.

My Ski Nautique is 1989 with a factory installed 454. It's dress up but is the same configuration. Hope this will help.....

This is great pjsmoreno!  I really appreciate it.  Once we get into it I may circle back for a couple other photos in specific areas.  Have a great day!

I was out on the lake yesterday afternoon and I remember the request for a few pics.
Thanks for the comment on the engine. Was rebuilt a couple of years ago due to a failed impeller. I should have change it before summer started. Can only blame myself for that...

Oh wow... impeller thing is the real deal.  I am religious about changing every year.  

If you happen to have a photo of where the oil cooler is positioned I would super appreciate it.  Also, do you have a transmission cooler?  I can't remember if mine was a combined cooler or not.

Was distracted that year with adjusting the carburetor after a rebuild while at the boat ramp. Didn’t catch it in time.

I'll agree with the "nah"

Looks like one of them big boy 9 inchers, for a 10-18/72C to me, not the little 5 incher on a 10-17/71C  Wink
