I have a 97' Sunsport that I have owned for 20 years. It never had a rear drain plug installed in it. I guess they didn't install them in every boat. I bought and intended to install one years ago...

Sounds like a great boat. What is the asking price? Can you post some of the photos of the stringer job done by the shop?
Nice job!! That's awesome! Did you know what you where getting into when you bought it? Can't wait to see your rebuild.
I know the exact problem you are having.... I have a 97 Sunsport. I have had the same issue you are talking about for over 15 years. Little gremlin that only shows its head every so often. I have...
Check with Mischief IV. He had his replaced on his 83". They match perfectly. He might still have or know the source.

That sounds pretty creepy. Glad you have a friend that would do that.
Great looking boat!!!
Bow thruster...... Pretty cool idea if your trying to sell to your old stern drive folks.
Nice work... Thanks for all the pictures. Good luck on your project.
Can you not just look up the exhaust pipes from the back of the boat. My brothers 83 Rider is straight piped. Worst case go to Home Depot and buy a wall camera. We use them and work and they would...
While you have it open.... I would replace with a new thermostat. They are pretty cheap and the do go bad.
