Another one of our members just put his boat up for sale. Slightly_twisted, why are you selling the V after all the work you put into it? Good Luck on the sale. http://maine.craigslist.org/boa/739551511.html

I want to wish you all a great and safe Father's Day - :clap:

Just installed my B-Day gift and I might go out later on today. For sure, tomorrow. After having my electronics stolen, I came up with this set-up. It's sometimes a hassle to remove and install the four screws, but it allows me to bring the electronics inside. :beer:

I'm thinking of re-powering but can't afford a new motor at this time. Not familiar at all with Johnson and would like your input on this motor: 2001 175HP JOHNSON OUTBOARD MOTOR $3.5K THIS MOTOR IS A TWO STROKE, CARBURETED , OIL INJECTED (CAN EASILY BE BLOCKED OFF) OUTBOARD WITH A FASTTRAK...

Merc 200HP 1980 - I have noticed that my trim pump (the square motor type) has been decreasing in pumping pressure gradually over the last few weeks. It’s now to the point that although it trims both up & down when I’m not moving, underway it does not work at all. Oil level is good and all air...

Need Cowlings 1980 Merc.200hp Lost my cowlings and the rear cowl bracket to some rough seas while fishing yesterday. Just so you know, they don’t float and boy, did they sink fast! The front hatch (the plastic type rather than the SS locking hatch) came undone, they opened like a clam. I looked...

I sprayed (HVLP) the repaired center console and T-top this afternoon and had a few paint overruns. Regardless of the fact that it hasn’t been more than 4 hours since I finished and it just started to rain on my new paint job…does anyone know if after only 12-14 hours of curing, it’s safe to...

Alim Marine Step Lift V20 - the predecessor to our Wellcraft. For sale in Homestead, FL for $2,500 - Don't know the year. Maybe the Gods would like to dedicate a Gallery to Alim Marine

Hope you and your families are all doing well!

Really nice fishing machine and no reserve. http://funkurl.com/bbvq

It’s hard to believe that just a few months out of a total restoration of my V20, I’m back to fiberglass, welding and paint. Some things never change and S_ _ T happens all the time! I did get to enjoy the summer and did some good fishing. Thanks to this forum and the support of all of you, I...

Well, I’m kind of embarrassed about this issue because I should have known better. Anyway when installing a hardtop, keep in mind that your t-top may not have been designed to handle the pendulum effect or momentum the extra weight of a hard top will bring, specially if it does not have proper...

I’m trying to raise the stern of the V a few inches and I can’t quite determine if filling the inside cavity of my outboard bracket with 2# closed-cell foam (added buoyancy) will accomplish that. Your comments and expertise, as always, are very welcome.

She looks good! http://funkurl.com/jdyp ;D

Check it out! - bring your trailer and it's yours. http://boston.craigslist.org/gbs/zip/443437527.html :o

1980 200HP Merc. Black Max. The lubricant is creamy in color, which I think is an indication of water seepage. Reading the repair manual, trouble shooting the problem is beyond my skills. Although the rest of the motor has been rebuilt, the lower unit is original and the only work done to it...

Somewhere in Central Florida!

Following up on Hammer's recommendation, I ordered the Gorilla Cycle Alarm and I received it yesterday. My weekend security project and hopefully my first line of defense against thieves. I think it's a great boat alarm and at $90.00, 100% waterproof and two years warranty, it's cheap peace on...

Took Friday off and went out 25 mile to fish the gulfstream by myself (not very smart) on the "V" Playing Hookie. And of course, two lines out - both get hooked at the same time. I let the bull run while I pulled the other as fast as I could. Then fought the bull for about 10 min. I had a great...

Got up Saturday morning at about 5am to go fishing with my oldest son to find out that some SOBs had broken into my patio to cut out the front of the center console and steal all my new electronics and gauge… and I did not hear a thing. I guess it was best not to hear a thing because I would...
