Do you know which pump you have? If it's the Smart Pump, it should have no trouble steering your boat no matter what displacement steering rams...
Can you identify the brand/model of the panel by any chance or is it an in-house custom? A few of the major panel manufacturers do publish...
Sorry I missed you on your Beaufort stop over marblehead. Don't know if you tried to take me up on my cocktail offer or not but if you did I...
If it's the one I'm thinking it is it should be just fine. Pipe Welders just did a couple carbon fiber hardtops for them and they used high temp...
Thanks for the report (and correction!) Mark! Good to hear she's holding up in that hot Florida sun AND that you're putting in some sea time on...
I've installed both and my personal preference is the Borel but both work. In the event of a raw water flow loss the time difference between 165...
A couple more possibilities Judy if Rob is not available (and he is excellent!); Pete Chiles, Robert M Chiles and Assoc. 252-637-3100 Lloyd...
A case in point on darker (and metallic) colors. This hull was painted Flag blue and experienced blistering on the side normally facing the sun in...
In addition to the repair concerns, going to a darker color must be carefully evaluated. Darker colors will increase hull skin temps in hot...
I'm sorry captholli, I missed your reference to the self leveling! I have used that on some interior countertops and it does a good job although...
I have to disagree with captholli, I know for a fact virtually every custom sportfish boat with a real teak toe rail is epoxy coated and topped...
When it takes more than a full can of ether to get her firing? :D Next time you're bored, pull the air box covers and check the cylinder wall...
Should hopefully be settling into a summer weather pattern by then so you'll likely get to run outside on some legs. Be safe, enjoy the ride and...
Should be fine, lots of new boats are delivered to dealerships with no names or numbers and I've sea trialed new boats the same way many times....
Always amazes me that decent sized boats don't have enough fuel capacity for longer runs. That 63 carried 1800 gallons so range wasn't a factor,...
That's good then, you know you should stay flexible and not try and beat some schedule mother nature will do everything in her power to disrupt!...
That's not very much fuel for that kind of burn rate! Figure on a max of 150 mile legs if even that far, some places it's quite a ways from the...
A little more info would be very helpful. Things like cruise speed, range, air draft (for inside portions), vessel condition (new to...
Hey, he just got that promotion and already you're trying to steal his job? :) Who, just noticed my sig changed below, Thanks Carl!!!
Unless it's in real bad shape, 120-180 grit with an orbital should be coarse enough to do the job without taking forever or removing too much...
