Hi oh Gurus of fiberglass, I'm about to start a transom and floor on my bayliner capri 16 Cuddy. This is the perfect size boat for my family - big enough for all of us and small enough to be hauled behind our minivan. I'm redoing the transom and replacing the floor and I think I have a handle...
In car forums this would be refered to as bench racing so I am appologizing in advance if that's not ok here.
I've seen outboard boats with brackets that move the outboard as much as a foot back. I've seen and raced on sailboats where a sugar scoop was added to add waterline. Would it be...
It was suggested I repost here so - I posted this over in the bayliner forum;
I was working on the wiring of my boat yesterday - got that all done. I looked down and noticed the carpet was ripped by the port rear facing chair. On closer inspection I found a soft spot that I had not noticed...
I was working on the wiring of my boat yesterday - got that all done. I looked down and noticed the carpet was ripped by the port rear facing chair. On closer inspection I found a soft spot that I had not noticed before. On checking further it was a bad rot right through the deck. Started...
Hi, I have an interesting situation that I am trying to understand. I bought the Bayliner listed in my sig. The original prop that came on it was badly dinged so the owner gave me what he said was his spare prop. According to the manual the original prop was a 13 inch 19 pitch prop. The one...
Hi alot of the pinstriping and other bayliner stickers like the fake windows and vents are frayed or cracked on my boat. I want to remove them. Does anyone have a suggestion as to how to do this? Also how do you get rid of the old adhesive afterwards? Any help would be great.
Thanks

I have a bayliner 16 ft cuddy with the 85 hp outboard and a 9 hp kicker. I want to pull a tube and wake board but both OBs are in the way. I'd like to make a tower of some sort. I'd love to see what any of you have done in this regards. Hope this is the right spot to post this. I thought...
Took my bayliner out yesterday with the full complement of family. At speed I made a turn - the boat turned great but after the turn the boat stayed over on the chine and would not right itself. I had to get everyone over to the other side of the boat before it would come back. The boat is an...
I finally swapped in a starter and got my 86 force 85 hp started. It started on just a few turns and idles reallly smooth. I had the water muffs on with enough pressure that I had a good bit of water squirting out the edges of both muffs but I did not get water spitting out of anywhere not the...
Just bought a new (to me) 86 bayliner capri cuddy with an 85 hp force outboard. Ran great on the test ride. Had one slow cranking issue back near the dock. Got it home and was getting the slow cranking again. Charged up the battery but it was still doing it. The cranking got slower only a...
I didn't get much feedback on my first post and I think I wasn't clear about what I was asking. So here goes at being more direct:
Tubing - what is the smallest outboard or I/O that can pull one
What are the advantages of a I/O vs an OB
What is the advantage of vhull bayliner over a tri hull...
Hi I'm new to the forum and I did search before asking. I just would like to hear your advice.
We are looking at getting our first power boat. Been a sailor for years but moved to Oregon and here in Oregon it seams like this is powerboat territory. We have a 2000 Pontiac Montana with a 3.4l...
