Last year was a success with the boat but I have a couple little things to work on. The boat and motors are 1988 pursuit 2200 with twin evinrude 115 v4. One thing I'm looking to change is the props. It's currently wearing aluminum 3 blade 12 and 3/4 by 21. Wide open throttle I'm about 5400 RPMs...
It's been a while but I'm back!
I need some help with a boat I have always wanted, and finally was able to buy. She's wearing twin evinrude 110's, model numbers E110TXCCA.
It sat for two years, but had been running prior to that point. So I decided to do some maintenance before getting it in...

I'm up against a wall- I am trying to get the gimbal assembly in the boat but its not...
Hi,
I need some help with selecting a prop for my Mercury 110 9.8 two stroke. It is going to live on my 14' Springbok Aluminum V. The propeller that is on it now is bent and gouged badly from the P.O. I will mostly be using the boat on calm water with only myself and a little bit of tackle...
Hi,
I need some help with the engine in the doner boat I bought to power my islander.
Looked at the boat, has 331 hours on it. The entire drive line looks great, and appears to have very little wear. I checked the oil before we did anything and it looked good, right at the top of the fill...
Hi,
I hope I picked the right forum for this. I need some help finding an oil pump to change the lower unit oil on a few outboards and one IO. They are
35hp evinrude
4hp evinrude yachtwin
9.9 eska
9.8 mercury
Mercruiser MC-1
I found some kits that include the pump, a bottle of lube, and...
Hi,
I am currently restoring a 1976 Starcraft islander with a Mercruiser 165 (MC-1 outdrive) The engine is shot, and I am going to put a new long block in it's place. What I need help with is the other end of that system. From what I have been reading it seems a pressure test is in order...
Hi,
I had been looking for an islander for a while now and kept getting beat out to the deals. (Like the $200 '95 hull- no motor or out drive, but had everything else) I have been continuing the search and looked at a few other boats since then. Well, it just so happened work took me to...
Hi,
I am glad I have found this website! I have done a little reading and it seems to be a wealth of information! I have been looking for a project boat for a few months now, but have not been having much luck. I found an Islander hull I have another thread about, but ran into problems...
Hi,
I need some help deciding if I should dive into this project or look for something else. I have lots of small boats (14 footers) but do not have anything that makes me feel comfortable on big water. I have been looking for boats for a few months now, and have found a $200 Starcraft...
