    Rules for: Is this boat worthy of a restoration project?

    Since there seems to be so much debate on whether or not a given boat is worthy of restoration, or is ready for the junk yard, I feel that maybe we should try a thread about this topic. Post up some pics and information on the boat in question, and post which two (2) redeeming qualities you...

    Replacing points ignition with Pertronix (or similar) electronic set

    I am debating replacing my points ignition with a Pertronix set up. I have experience with them in cars, but I need some input on them for boats. Any experience with them? Good or bad is fine. I just need input. Also, does it matter if it is one for a car, or does it have to be one of the ones...

    Bow filler cushions...well...cushion (singular)

    '90 200 Horizon (though I am sure other years within this body style will work), I am looking for one of the two bow filler cushions. I have the forward most of the two piece set, and I am looking for the second one. Color / condition not important.

    What and Why?

    OK...I did a quick search, and found nothing recent like this. If it is a repeat, please forgive me. What boat did you buy, and why did you buy it? There are a huge number of posts with everyone telling which brand they prefer, why others should feel the same way, and bashing them for not...

    Third time's a charm? 1990 Four Winns 200 Horizon Resto/Refurb

    Well...here goes. Either I have amnesia, am a glutton for punishment, or I have unconsciously started smoking crack. Not sure which it is, but whatever the case, I have a new project boat. Bit-o-history...have car resto experience-o-plenty with everything from old and late model Mustangs, to...

    Replacing the Tach

    Used the search function, didn't find one like this. I just bought a 1990 Four Winns 200 Horizon with an OMC 5.8 (Ford 351w) v-8 stern-drive. At some point in time, someone has replaced the factory tach with one from a Sea Ray. I do not know if it works, but it sure does not match the rest of...

    Another Project...

    This is my first post. I have been trolling for a while, but decided to jump in now. I recently purchased a new project boat. This is not my first boat, not my first Four Winns, and not my first project boat. This is, however, the first project boat that I will be paying someone else to do...
