Looking good, do you have any more photos of how the swim platform attaches? My lower bolt in the swim platform is starting to pull out a bit and I’m hoping I can repair before a full stringer...
I have a leak on the threaded fitting into the carb. I have tried tightening it to stop the leak and it successfully does, but only for a little while. By the end of a set it has loosened up or...
Does your breaker switch? I had mine go bad last year.

Have been toying over buying this for a rebuild.... currently have '88 comp in near perfect condition. Maybe throw an electric motor in this...
Put the boat in for the weekend at my grandparents cabin and noticed that the rpm gauge no longer is functioning correctly. It turns up to 700ish rpm, and will raise to 800 when lowering the throttle...
So, got some more time with it out this last weekend. I replaced the battery terminals two weekends ago and boy does it start up quick. I had the no starting issue a few times, all with a multimeter...

Looking at some seadek...
Another great idea, I ordered extra 2/0 cable for that reason. The boat is getting all new marine grade battery cables in addition to the second battery. I got some of the connectors in, but still...
Thanks for the advice squamInboards. I have a deep cycle on it right now, I plan to switch the new one for the starter and put the deep cycle on the stereo and accessories. Any other ideas before I...
So, had it happen one more time on the wedding day. Thankfully it was after the ceremony getting the boat back to the trailer. Hooked the boat up to the charger and put the charger in start mode and...
Been doing some other research, when we couldn't get it started it would not even turn over. This is typically cause by a bad starter solenoid possibly. I have not found too much advice about how to...
Battery was testing good and the store I bought it from as well. They were still willing to replace it, got a new one in the boat and will test it out this weekend with temperatures expected to be in...
I added starter fluid cause it was the first time out for the season, and just felt that the battery almost died so sprayed a bit in just to ensure it would start easy, it probably didn't need it.
...
So I took the battery out and brought it to advanced auto store and it checked out to be good. Any ideas of what could have caused it to not start after a few seconds of trying? It stopped and would...
My guess is that your Sherwood pump is installed backwards... I did that one spring and it would run for about 2 minutes before overheating. Once it kept hiking I shut it down right away with mine,...

Yep looks like the battery isn't being charged fully. The battery is running at 12.68 after last weekend, I did not...
So last year I had a few issues starting my boat from a drained battery. I replaced the battery half way through the season last year and am seeming to have the same issue already this year. I took...

Got the swim platform upgraded to a...
Where is it located? For myself I'd fear the 3" curve would look funny against a comp back too, not much curve in those days. I wonder if I could make template to check that out.

Looking for a used teak swim platform off your crashed boat.

1. Your best bet will be buying a used one from a crashed boat. Or redoing your own.
2. It should be a ford 351 v8 by pleasure craft marine with a 1:1 ratio transmission if it's stock.
3. You...
Co on wi law makers, conversation of two person is on the table... that would make us real happy. I wouldn't consider it in the middle of the day, but those 7 am runs would be worth it.

From my understanding the gel coat is not that thick, maybe you have sanded/buffed through it and are getting to the fiberglass =/
