Some may recall I aquired a well weathered 22' SRV last fall ('03). <br />Right away, I removed all the box mounted seats and their bases, then pulled out 90% of the crappy carpet. (there was vegetation sprouting in it.)<br /><br />Since then it has pretty much sat. I'm in Boomyall's area and...
hey neighbor...<br />I didn't realize you had a project underway. Any chance of getting together and comparing notes?<br />I'm good with tools, have done lots of stuff, but I could stand some advice... I'd like to at least see what you;re doing with your floor.<br />I'm in about the same boat...
my subject pretty well addresses my question.<br /><br /> If the image shows up--- this rear area that's getting a total overhaul. I know what I'm going to do with it. <br />However, first this stuff all comes out, then the floor (and the mysteries below) gets redone, only once all thats...
I would think this is an obvious upgrade. WHat about a GM HDI from a junk yard<br />(the one with the coil in the distributor cap?). Or if new, what? An Accell kit from an<br />auto performance catalog?<br /><br />Opinions? Remarks?<br /><br />Also, in my newly purchase Clymer manual, it says...
You mentioned a relative had pulled the floor on his Sea Ray. Can you offer any insights as to what sort of construction he ran into?<br />Was the decking well attatched to the stringers? what supported the decking as it met the hull?<br />Did they remove all the old foam?<br /><br />Yeah, I...
As some of you from the boat ??? forum know, I just aquired a 22 ft Sea Ray. It has set out in the weather for some time.<br /><br />The two peices that are part of the windshield walkthru and cuddy access are pretty funky. I think these are not the original pieces but I dunno. The sellor...
All ready thinking hard about upgrading to another boat. I like the size and looks of the Sea Ray<br />and I've found one (250 miles away) for $5k, with nearly new Volvo Penta engine and outdrive.<br /><br />I know the engine is a 350 w/4bbl. Know nothing about outdrive. 40 hours on new engine...

My boat is an 18 1/2 ft Manatee. I've been told it's heavy. The engine is a rebuilt Merc 115 o/b with about 25 hours on it now. I put most of that time on the engine varying the rpm as instructed<br />but without the benefit of a tachometer. Now that the tach is there, I read WOT is 4600 rpm. I...
I am new to the area here, and even newer as a boat owner and fisherman. Reading the Oregon fishing regulations I saw Striped Bass listed, with a minimum size of 36". Now that's sounds intriguing.<br /><br />Again how/when/where? My boat is only 18.5 ft so I don't see going 10 miles offshore...
Twice recently, I have purchased frozen herring for bait, only to find they turn soft-<br /> almost like they've been cooked- when they thaw.<br />I'm guessing they're not very fresh by the time they were frozen. Has anyone<br /> else run into this? They sure don't last very well on the hook. If...
Any one here ever fish the Multnomah channel. I'm told there's small mouth bass, catfish and even pike/waleyes in there.<br /><br />Anyone got any comments on where? Especially for the catfish. I have lots of advice for the bass, but the info on catfish is pretty vague, and the walleyes are just...
