So I went to start the motor (1994 Yamaha 200hp carbed) this week in preps for the weekend. I got nothing but a humming sound from the motor. Opened the cover and the humming sound was the starter bendix spinning but never jumping up and engaging. I've been troubleshooting it all afternoon. My...

Hey guys, I was going through and cleaning our my garage today and I found the fish box cover for my '89 V20 cuddy. I almost put it on the curb but I thought I would give it a chance on here. If anyone needs it just pay for shipping and I'll send it to you. It's in good shape. I also have the...

Looking at a 22.2 Aquasport CC tomorrow..asking 6k. Has a 2000 Yammi 225. Can Ferm or any of the other guys please give me some opinions. I'm gonna compression check it tommorow also.

So, it's time to start looking for a boat. (BTW the V is still sitting on the side of my yard if there are any other pieces anyone wants. PM for specifics.) I'm seriously considering buying a boat with no hull and buying a bad motor and having it rebuilt OR buying a boat with a bad motor on it...

Have an '89 V20 cuddy sitting in my yard..had big plans for it but it just sits. Transom has been cut out from the top. Stringers were solid last time I checked. 25" transom. It sits on a dual axle trailer that is not in good shape. Not decent for the highway as is...or any road for that matter...

I have given up on ever re-doing my V20. This spring I think I'm gonna look hard for a ready to go V20 CC. I think the CC will better fit my lifestyle and with the new baby and returning to sea soon (Navy guy), re-doing it just seems to be a pipe dream. In the meantime I want to put my V out...

I was checking out the classic Sea Craft site today (I know...flirting with another hull...lol) and found an interesting article. Its about the history of Sea Craft, specifically the start and growth of the company under Carl Moesly. When I have read about Sea Craft prior to this you always...
