    The leg is off

    Thx for the info, at least it's an acceptable alternative to pulling the motor, I remember several years ago the owner of this boat cracked the gimbal ring so that could explain the back door fix, It seems to steer ok. I guess I can't blame him, that is pretty much the reason I swapped it to an...

    The leg is off

    Has an SEI 116 that is new, a gimbal bearing that is toast and a back door to the steering. As Rick said in a previous post the shift cable is bound up pretty good and I was getting water from the o-ring crossing over I believe. Boat handled just like any other deep v at 5 mph. I'll loose sleep...

    The leg is off

    I'm getting your drift. Easy access to the steering arm. I haven't had this boat over 10 miles an hour, in fact yesterday was the first time I had it out on the water and went half a mile to the lunch ramp. I probably should pull that plate off and see what's in there.

    The leg is off

    After the fourth crowd headed out I was able to get the boat out at leisure yesterday. Fuel pump replacement preformed. Pulled leg and discovered what seems to be a metal plate glued at the top of the transom housing. I'm baffled, why?

    Safe to tow with bow not resting on front roller?

    Not much to add, but be sure bearings, tires, and brakes are good.

    Engine bay part identify

    Thru hull for the head is my guess. I suppose you could open it ad see where the water comes in.

    Electric fuel pump upgrade, which fuel filter/filter system?

    I just did that to mine, I don't know how to refer to the thread but I had a couple of pics of my install. I used the existing separator but moved it to a bulkhead and used the mounting for the pump. thread title was "fuel pump frustrations"

    Wire rope replacement

    I planned on passing it along after I tried it, so take this info at your own risk until I give it a go but it seems so simple it should work well on smaller rope. simply take 2 2x4 blocks about 6 inch long and cut a shallow groove about half the diameter of the rope across one of the blocks and...

    Wire rope replacement

    I don't know who built the dock pretty much a typical over head 4 point lift but I guess I could ask the wire company when I buy it. Thx

    Wire rope replacement

    I have some fraying and want to replace the 5/16 cable on my lift. I have done this once before but had a few folks to help keep tension on the cables when winding them on the drive pipe. This time I will need to do it by myself and was wondering if any of you folks have a tip for doing it.

    interrupt switch disconnected

    I'm hearing you, I'm too old to rush it and have to go back! BTW, about 10 years ago you were jacking up a cottage if I remember right, how did that adventure go?

    interrupt switch disconnected

    I gave it a try today and found out why the switch was disconnected but didn't tear any cleats loose with it tied up to the dock. I think the lower cable is binding or something is. with the switch connected I could get it into forward but it would die shifting back to neutral. It would not...
