    Refurbished 1983 Bayliner 85HP over-heating?

    Here are the facts: (bear with me, I've noted as much as I can remember in the order they happened) Per the receipt I got from the prior owner, in 2004 an "annual service" to the Powerhead and lower unit were performed (R/R cylinder head, repaired spark plug hole, installed heli coils, water...

    Adding a Trim Sending unit to a 1983 85HP

    OK, since mine was not designedfor one, I thought I'd try to rig a sending unit to go along with my newly added, with the great help of this forum, tilt and trim unit.

    Tie Down Self Centering Bunks are: COVERS!

    Just thought I'd give those considering this product a heads up. I read the reviews both on this site and at BassProShops and not one mentioned that these are actually full length PVC covers that are a substitute for the bunk carpet, not for the whole bunk itself. They are installed over...

    removable post guideons?

    I have the original matching Escort Trailer for my 1983 Bayliner Capri 1600. If it wasn't in such good shape (boat and trailer always garaged by the previous owner and present owner), I'd get a new trailer. The challenge I have is two fold: 1. The trailer beams are too inset for the Post...

    How to add a kill switch to 1983 85HP Force

    New to boating and my first post... How do I add a kill switch to my motor? What type/model to buy? Where? How to install? Where on my instrument panel should I mount it? Tips on wiring? (Because of this site, I've already added the Tell-Tail. Works like a champ though getting the plug off of...
