    Digital Gauge Removal

    Hello Everyone, I have a 1988 Celebrity Crown line. I recently removed the digital gauges and replaced with analog. The digital gauges where absolutely worthless for so so many reasons. My question is that after removing old gauges I no longer have my alarms, which I would like to have my temp...

    Power Trim

    Hello All, My power trim buttons on the throttle control have the up and down switch and then there is the trailer button. The lower unit use to trim up to a point then stop at a operating limit then to bring it to the top I would use the trailer button. Now the up down button just brings it all...

    1988 Celebrity wiring nightmare

    Do I tare all of it out or do I continue to fight the gremlin. I installed a new bilge pump yesterday and it worked fine.

    Transom

    Regretfully I found iboats after my new stringers and floor were installed by me. I had some great advice from our local fiberglass company and that turned out very nice. But after reading about floor issues and then transom issues I figured I better check. What I found was that the wood in...

    Surge Brakes

    This is probably a stupid question, but I did a search on surge brakes and didnt find to much. My question is I am pretty sure mine do not work and was wondering if there is a resource as to repairs. The trailer is a 1988 shorelander roller style. Has two axles and that's about all I can tell...

    Bow Cushions

    Hello All, I have replaced almost all the wood in this boat but last fall one of the kids stepped on the cusion and this is what happened. As you can tell there is no wood left, no problem except how do I get that radius around the bow? I think I will remove the other side for a patern then...

    Winter

    We are having a forever winter I am pulling the boat out on Saturday even though it is only going to be in the 40's. Sometimes we just need to pretend summer is coming but it would be nicer to fly down to Florida and sit on some of your boats.;)

    Old Name

    I would like to rename my boat and I need to get the old paint off. Would I go with a orbital sander and wet sand? I did a search and I didnt see any posts. Thanks for the help.

    Trim Control

    I have a 1988 Celebrity with the 5.? V8 Merc drive. On the throttle control the trim switch use to have two options, one for trailering and one for motoring. Now it only works in the trailering position. This isnt a big deal since I can still raise the trim but it was nice so a person couldnt...

    Boat Cover

    I would like to buy a well made cover and was wondering if anyone has had any luck with the semi custom suppliers. I can have a custom made snap down cover for 750.00 but I really don't want to spend that kind of money on a 1986 Celebrity. Thanks for any advice.
