    Stringer

    Easy way to check for stringers issues is the limber holes. They are the holes in the stringer where it ties into the transom. When wellcraft built these hulls, they just drilled holes and left the exposed wood unsealed. Usually where rot begins. If they would have sealed these holes and the...

    Mixed bag, with a new species

    Never heard of Scungilli, looked up the recipe, gonna have to try it. Funny that it’s a traditional Christmas Eve meal. We always have oyster stew on Christmas Eve . We’re gonna get some more, no harder to clean that scallops or crabs. Thanks for the scungilli tip

    Cfelton, have u ever used a product called Linebacker? It’s kinda like spray on cosmoline. My 83 merc on my V20 was starting to get crusty, so I cleaned her up and sprayed it down with Linebacker. Stopped the corrosion, but what a PIA to work on. It got everywhere when I touched that engine...

    Speckled Trout & Mullet

    Hey G, just saw the comment bout the edibility of mullet. On the gulf coast from Tampa to Pensacola, they are very good to eat. Other parts not so much. Not sure they eat them at all on the east coast. They are usually fried or smoked. Must be eaten when fresh, usually within 24 ours or...

    Console rebuild Lowrance 12”

    Not that big of a deal to bump it back a couple of inches, least on mine it wasn’t. I had to move mine back when i got the new OB 10 years ago. Gotta remember, when these boats were built, Wellcraft had no idea what flavor motor was going on the boat, so they left a lot of wiggle room.
