Sweet looking ride but wow$ https://gulfport.craigslist.org/boa/6085237504.html

Hey guys, had a buddy come over from New Orleans Saturday & we ran out to Horn Island (in the pitch dark) for the night. On the way out I was creeping along just on plane, maybe 2600 rpms, then when there aren't anymore channel markers to hit, I picked it up to 3000, after a minute the alarm...

http://gulfport.craigslist.org/boa/5832557450.html This one looks a bit rough. Not mine, I just know there are always guys looking for the 21's.

Along with my 20's I have a 15 foot wooden runabout. Went out with a friend yesterday, dropped some crab traps, fished a bit boat ran perfect. Got home hooked up the muffs, no tell tale (pee). I know it was working the last time I started it, must have gave up the ghost as I ran pretty fast...

Tried to take the Son-in-law & Grandaughter out Friday, had everything ready, weather did not cooperate. Tried again this am. Get to the launch, back in, try to start, grrrr, nope. Knew the one battery was weak, had charged them both Thursday. didn't run it after that because I'd added the...

My cushions were destroyed in hurricane Katrina, had them in the house. Been looking for replacements (but I'm cheap) ever since. Found these yesterday on craigslist, 20 minutes away! $80 bucks. Two things, Guy said they are from a v20, I'm sure he's right, but the square part doesn't fit...

http://gulfport.craigslist.org/boa/5557569932.html I saw this boat today, didn't look too close but I plan on going back by if someone wants info. Looked like a mid 80's boat, maybe 90's. Galvanized trailer. add says stringers all redone. Doug

went looking for a truck this afternoon, found an outboard motor. Guy selling the truck owns a marine shop, had a sweet v-20 with a 150 yammie for sale. Also had a 1984 evinrude 150, said it was good to go, young man was gifted the boat & repowered with a $14,000 etec! Asking $1000 but he...

I was thinking I could donate this prop to the Macojoe boat project but it won't fit. But I bet I can make it fit. :-) +++++ For sale used 15 1/2 inch (measured) by 13 pitch (stamped) aluminum OMC prop. Hubbed & complete with nut, spacer, castle washer, and thrust washer. Came off a 1988...

http://gulfport.craigslist.org/boa/5251300905.html Not one of mine, just saw it on craigslist. Looks like he took care of it, I know I couldn't stand behind the wheel with that bimini though. I hate driving sittin' down.

Local guy is looking to trade a 140 evinrude (year?) 'cause he got the wrong shaft length. (kills me how many guys do that) I have a 25" foot & mid off an 1988 225 sitting out here, I know they cross with several models, but need more specific info please.

OK guys I'm interested in soda blasting the hull of my 1983 V-20. She was bottom painted with black anti fouling paint. I've tried some chemicals with no luck, If I have to sand it, then I'm sure I'll have to repaint which I don't want to do. I see these online vids of guys taking down to the...

http://gulfport.craigslist.org/boa/4746073697.html Odd cap, I've never seen this configuration. It must be lighter than mine, 'cause so much of it ain't there! Who knows the year?

It's a 2.5 litre and has had the oil pump removed long ago. I've had issues but almost all electrical. This one has me stumped. Starts fine, off we go, I hit the throttle & it takes off, everything seems normal. We ride along on plane for a while (from 2 to 10 minutes) then without me...
