I am trying to find a tank similar to my old one. I'd like to avoid the cost of having a custom tank fabricated for me. Does anyone have any stores or websites they recommend for me to try? FYI the boat is a 1982 Wellcraft V20 cuddy cabin. The old tank was 60 gallons and was 26"W x 60"L, but...
I've been having trouble getting answers, and I think the reason is beacuse I'm not asking a clear question. So I decided to make a quick video explaining my problem, and I'm hoping someone can offer advice.

Hi guys,
I bought this engine on eBay last February and it has served me very well. It recently sat for about a month and the flywheel seized up. After a few other steps I was advised to pull the heads and they look pretty bad. I'd like to know what steps I should take from here, and if I...
After replacing the ignition switch, what I thought was wire-for-wire, the engine tries to start when I turn the key to the ON position. It's a three position switch and previously I had to turn it all the way to the right to start it and leave it in the middle to run it... then left to shut it...
I have an Evinrude 1994 175 HP 6 cyl outboard (E175GLERA). Does anyone know how many alternator poles my engine has? I'm trying to install a Teleflex tach.
Thanks

I just applied the third coat of Perfection to the topside of my boat. Every coat seemed to leave mini bubbles which I haven't been able to avoid. So after each coat I sand. My question... do I sand after the final coat?
If I don't sand, the finish is mirror-like glossy, but there are a...
What should the compression be? I bought an older boat and checked compression right at 75 each cylinder. This seemed low, but they were consistent. It's a project boat and I haven't decided what to do about the engine yet. I haven't attempted to run it yet.
I'm rewiring all of my dashboard gauges. I understand the G terminals to be ground (black wire), the + terminals to be 12V which I've tied into the switch that controls my running lights (red wire), the S terminals where applicable are senders which connect to the device they are measuring from...
I cut out all the wiring to redo it, but now am having trouble understanding what I was dealing with. The trim will go down, but not up. I traced some wires around. From the trim motor's electrical panel inside the motor, I have 5 wires coming out: red w/ white stripe, green w/ white stripe...
My tilt goes down, but won't go back up. It was working fine yesterday. Didn't have time to take the cover off tonight. Gonna check it out tomorrow. Any help? '85 Johnson 115, with a Bombardier throttle.
I just partially stripped down my 15.5' Bonita. There was some rotten wood parts that need to be replaced. The old stuff was plywood wrapped in leather/pleather. I'd like to replace these parts but am not sure what to use. Should I cut new wood pieces and glass them? I've never handled...
