Hello folks,
I am considering this 2000 Crestliner 182 model with a 150 HP Etec. I am a little concerned about the hull (only seen it in pictures/videos). Before I put an offer in and test the hull, I want to get some feedback on what I am seeing in these pics.. it appears that fairly visible...
Hey folks,
Looking to get some feedback on a boat I am looking at buying. Is anyone familiar with the 1990 "Crestliner Legend GT " ? Anyone familiar with the history of this boat? Thanks!
It did not leak like this until the other day... I've owned the boat for two year and I've owned a few 2 strokes.. never seen this before.. and it's still leaking in my garage!
thanks guys! I just removed the prop to check for fishing line and found this... looks badly corroded.. i don't have any experience repairing motors.. complete novice - but this looks bad to me!
Hello there! I am asking for some assistance with replacing what I believe are failing gaskets (see pics). I am very novice at engine repairs so I am not sure if I am in over my head. But I would like to save some money if this is doable. About the only things I do with my motor are replace...
Hey folks,
I have a 1990 50 HP Johnson (VJ50TLESR). What size seal should i be using? I believe the 3/8-16 is the correct size but I just want to confirm before I order them on Amazon. Thank you!

Is it this:

Hey folks, I'd like to buy the proper connector for this Attwood fuel tank. The tank was used for a Merc, but my motor is an Evinrude. I bought the proper connector to the Evinrude motor. What part number (or generic brand) should I get to connect to the tank? Thanks
See the tank below:
I bought it for $900. It's an early 2000 model. That's a good price for that motor around here. I listed it for 1150 to cover gas, time, and factor in wiggle room with potential buyers... May have to drop price as now i have no motor (I want to use the boat this season) but I have another one...
Yup, you're all correct! Unfortunately... I bought this hastily.. inexperience...
I've listed it again. The thing that bugs me is that the seller insisted it was a short shaft. She was an elderly lady. I guess there's a smaller market for long shafts because since I listed it two days ago not...
