Not much to update, little things here and there but it’s basically as the last pics and everything are shown. It came with the bow rail, I believed it to be stock but maybe someone added it…
I used total tread, only had one quart (I have a small floor area) and wasn‘t able to get quite two coats on, but just about. It’s held up about 2.5 seasons, but it is starting to wear down a little. I’m going to just add some rubber mats soon for anti-fatigue so I won’t care about the paint too...
Peruse a bunch of the resto threads, as suggested. You’ll see what everyone else has gone through, and if it’s worth it for you to go through it too with this boat. Sounds like you plan to remove the floor? Do that and post pics, go from there…
If you unscrew that connector you will for sure find threads, either NPT or garden hose, from the looks probably 3/4” NPT or 3/4” Hose. Like stated someone had their favorite flavor of quick disconnect threaded in there, I do that on mine too (‘06 Merc 90hp, except my port is on the back of the...
About 2 years ago broke down and couldn't restart on a 6' day, USCG was there in about 30 mins and towed me to port. So as a blanket statement, I can't agree.
I also have boatUS, but didn't need to use them that day thankfully.
That picture is my boat. I can't even sit in the cabin without leaning my head way over. Let alone stand. It has since morphed into a pilothouse.
If I were trying to do a full cabin I'd use aluminum rail, loke Bimini materials, and just do canvas. Anything else would be too heavy for such a...
Hmm, try this one maybe.

Looks like you already got one, but if you wanted to send back and upgrade for what I think is the same price currently, well then you...
AFAIK, this is their higher end offering, with a better (brighter) screen thank the reveal series. It's a very good deal right now. Same price as the hook reveal for a more full featured unit.
Check this out!

Alright well I just resealed the whole LU just to be safe. Oil that came out actually didn't looks very bad or milky. Not sure why that little bit at the drain looked funky. It did seem like the upper/lower oil seals below the water pump were failing, the bearing surface had a little rust, and...
Pretty much done for now. This never ends does it?
Made a little custom rod holder situation with some holders off Amazon, and some 7/8" SS rail.
Time to go crabbing.
It has a drain plug, a fill level plug, and a third vent plug, so it might just be semantics if there's any confusion.
I removed the fill level plug but not the vent plug, and was of course pumping from the bottom. I wouldn't imagine that just because the vent plug was in place during the fill...
