    Dude , in your 1st post you say you " I have a Lund " , then you state " it's not my boat and i dont have a" Vin " , no boat does . .Where is the paperwork, and yes it does have a HIN . Which is usually affixed or stamped into the upper right outside corner of the transom unless it ground...

    Buying an '03 Sea Ray Sundeck 220

    I would be hesitant to not bother with muffs and run it dry . Not sure if you have a heat exchanger or where your impeller is located . Not fun to find all the remnants of the impeller jammed into who knows where . Or what that does to the impeller housing ,base plate . As noted above , main...

    Insurance for older boats

    If you have it surveyed, make sure it's done by a accredited person . I believe there are two different ones they will accept. SAMS comes to mind , can't remember the other one .Most insurance companies require that .

    Crosby Sled identification

    Serial number is not the same as a HIN , so the last 2 digits have no bearing on the year it was built. What does the paperwork say ?

    2002 191 Starcraft Islander Stiff Throttle

    Doesn't hurt to disconnect the cables from the engine to verify it's the cable . When you get the controller off , again isolate the cables to make sure you're not replacing the wrong item .

    Unknown toggle switch

    Highly unlikely that anyone can identify it . You are going to have to trace the wires , or turn it on and listen for something running . Might be lights , bilge pump or added for some accessory that the previous owner took out . It is a two or three way switch ?

    What is this sailboat part called

    Mast Raiser ,,,,,,, talked to a few sailors, they never saw anything like that . Top ( maybe ) slotted part goes into a channel that secures it . Worm gear goes into the base of the mast . When you turn the flanged part it would raise or lower the mast depending on its intial position. That's my...

    Sportcraft Li'l Sport, worth restoring?

    Might be worth a grand with the motor and trailer . Sell as is , not worth restoring , will cost you more to do that and if done , it's still only worth a grand in today's market .

    1991 Chris Craft Concept 167 staring issue

    " never damage the prop " uhhh no , raising the outdrive guarantee's nothing . If it's that shallow you should be pulling the boat by hand .I stand by my statement, the gauge is useless and not worth fixing .

    1991 Chris Craft Concept 167 staring issue

    Trim gauge is just another bell and whistle you don't need . Adjust trim by the seat of your pants . Somewhat down position when you take off ,once on a plane you trim up until the bow feels light or your RPMs jump up real quick , drop it a hair at that point. Usually in tougher water you start...

    09 FourWinns H190 deck?

    The one piece glass decks are 100% better than carpet over wood set up . They will rot out , nature of the beast .

    09 FourWinns H190 deck?

    Picture doesn't show the transition from glass to carpet over wood is my guess . If that's the case you have to physically look at the underside of the wood deck , usually through the ski locker . Flashlight, and screwdriver to poke around with and check any suspect soft wood . That carpet over...

    2002 Chaparral 200SSE Fuel Capacity?

    Well if you think the gas gauge is correct ,yes when it's bouncing between 1/4 and empty run it out . No doubt there is a Charappal Owners Club on Facebook,might get a answer there , the rule of thumb is 10% is unusable, as in it can't be picked up by the fuel pick up system.

    2002 Chaparral 200SSE Fuel Capacity?

    Take a 5 gallon tank with you when you're low on gas . Fill it with the 5 after you run out , then off to the gas station,do the math . Or if you can get all 3 measurements on the tank you can use the formula to come out with there stated number of gallons.
