In general, how hard is it to change a water pump? I have a 100 hp johnson (older motor, like a 79') that I'm pretty sure needs a new water pump. To save money I was thinking about trying to replace it myself, but want to know what I'm getting into. Thanks.
Hey the trim on my outboard is shot. Until I am able to get a new trim fitted onto the boat are there any alternatives to keeping the motor up while traveling? Thanks. I'm not sure if it matters but the motor is a 1970's 100hp Johnson. Thanks.
First, I have been throwing ideas around in my head for winter projects. I know it's only April and we just got out of winter, but I'm trying to think ahead. I was looking online and found this http://www.classicboat.com/classic-23Holiday-12c.htm what would it take to do a wood floor like this...

If I was interested in putting an outboard on a boat that is an ib/ob, could I just use seacast to fill in the hole, or would that not work? Thanks for the help.
will this engine http://eastnc.craigslist.org/boa/2039173328.html have enough power for a 19' silverline aruba? I don't need to fly, but I do need to have enough power to pull tubes and wakeboards and get to different fishing spots. Thanks for the input
Hey guys I'm new to the forum. My wife just got/found me a boat for free - a 1973 silverline aruba. Now I apologize if I am posting this in wrong section, but what size/types of motors will fit in this boat. It is an 18' inboard outboard, and I really can't find any info for motors on this boat...
