I don't frequent the board as much lately as my old bimmer has taken up alot of my time - head gasket replacement, and other fixes. Just wondering how he is doing. I'm going to ask - and I'm trying to be delicate here so no one flame me - but wondering about the last T-shirt orders. Would...

Gentlemen, My 87' 175 Johnson is providing a nice shock when my hands are damp on my stainless steering wheel. Obviously a short somewhere. Any feedback on what may be causing the problem? She was cutting out a little last time out and the carbs have recently been redone so I'm leaning...

Hey guys, what size rope goes in the rub rail on my 87? Its like rubbing your inner thigh on coarse sandpaper getting in and out of the boat. Recommendations on type of rope? Its been a while since I've been online. The 87' is running well and for anyone interested, the ceramic Arjay...

The crappy Attwood fuel bulb on my small boat won't hold pressue to save my life. Constantly have to pump the bulb. This isn't the first one of these I've had that is junk. Who makes the top quality stuff? Tempo? Thanks

I'm replacing all my fuel lines and my existing filter looks bad - base is corroded and I don't know how old the filter is. Maury

My motor is an 88' 175 johnson. I had the carbs completely redone about a year and a half ago when I bought the boat - new plugs also. Took her out the other day and dealt with rough idiling and cutting out under load. Plugs are ok. Don't look new out the box but aren't fouled up. I'm...

Brought her to the launch today and had a no start. I could only get about .5 volts to the starter and the power trim. Battery is fully charged and everything worked in the driveway about an hour before (tilt/trim and motor started right up.) I'm getting 12.5 volts to the red and black to the...

I may need someone to pick up some rims and ship. Seller says pick up only. Maury

Is there anything I can use from Lowes or the Depot for my bilge instead of paying over $30 a quart for the Brightside stuff at Worst Marine? maury

for your recommendation on the aluminum transom wedges. I think i can say my transom replacement is officially complete. Bought longer top mounting bolts and put the brackets on. They work perfectly. I guess I need to post a final pic after I get everything cleaned up. Good call on the...

I've got a Rule 1500 that's making some noise - don't know why, it looks like it has never been used. Is that the same size most of you have? I might as well replace the float switch also. Stick with Rule? Maury

While I'm here at work waiting to get home and get back to my transom repair, I was thinking about the raw water washdown I've been wanting to install. Do I buy the kit with the hose and everything or just get a pump and fabricate everything else myself? And while I'm asking questions, what...

Folks, Some of you may remember I posted a while back about my need for a transom and my intent to use the Arjay 6011 or Nidacore pourable compounds. Well, the time has arrived. I began the operation this weekend. As background, I purchased what I consider a very pristine 88' dual console...

Guys, Is your speedo tube routed over the transom or through the transom? I installed my new teleflex gauges santa brought me. All that's left is the speedo pitot. Thanks, Maury

Santa bought me some new teleflex gauges and I'm looking for the wiring diagram for the original tach. The new tach has a seperate post for each wire but the original has all the wires going in a single slot. Thanks, Maury

...... thanks for the window sticker. Its already on the boat. What a nice surprise. Happy New year to you and everyone else on the board.

I've got a free 1 gal sample of the Arjay 6011 pourable transom material on its way to me. I had hoped to get an already laminated piece but I guess this way I can come to my own conclusions about its workability and such. I'll keep everyone informed (if anyone's interested). ;D

Yeah, I was floating in the lake trying to keep the camera dry. My 6 y/o is looking cool in daddy's glasses driving the V. Looks like we're surfing in the second pic. Check out the last two pics. That shine came from wetsanding with 1500, 2000 and 2500. I then used my PC with medium then fine...

The void between the skins that is. Is it a full 2" or a little less? Maury
