    Amine Blush

    Amine Blush....and removing it. I'm at point right now with my redo on the bottom finish where I have to remove the dreaded amine blush. The last time I did the bottom the keels were not installed so removing was a lot easier. Does anyone have a good...

    Air waves rant

    They used to be free....The local news paper ran article that said that by 2009 in my area all TV broadcasts will be either satellite or cable,no more air wave broad casts. Their reason is that the equipment is old and the towers need to be replaced. They also state that 80% of the population...

    Anode for a older O.B.

    I have notice by the efflouresent that is building up around the seems of the old 1955 OMC that this engine doesn't have an anode on the lower unit. I was thinking of installing one. Any reasons not to?

    Power trim for an older motor {1955}

    I seem to remember a power motor lifter {not a trim} that would attach to the side of the engine then to the boat for lifting it up in shallow water. I did a search here at iboats but they are more than what I need. Has anyone seen one of these side mounts ?

    Where has all the water gone?

    It seems that the mid lakes of Michigan and Huron are down another 18" so in total that's about 7' from the high water mark of 1997.<br /><br /> What's causing this loss of water? It's also to the point where we have to extend our dock another 20' just so we can go out, we have 40' in total now...
