    most boats have wood stringers and transom until you get to the early 00's guarantee that over 98% of fiberglass boats from the 90's were wood core many high-end low-volume builders still use wood and balsa in various sections as core because its cheap. production boats today have engineered...

    Just thought I'd share a nice photo.

    you probably could have tuned that bog out with different squirters and cams and a progressive linkage for the secondaries. I had my 650 DP on the 3.8 Buick V6 in the Opel GT tuned so that when i mashed the throttle in 1st, you better be grabbing second quickly. my 78 Dodge W150 had a 360 with...

    New to site and boating. Need 411 on throttle control.

    VP AQ series I/O's use the type 33 cables. you will need to know your lengths. usually hot-stamped on the ends of the cables. or pull the cables out and measure.

    Absolute Noob seeking advice and knowledge.

    if you want fuel economy in a boat, get one with sails and slaves pulling on oars. an well tuned up outboard will burn 0.5# of fuel per HP per hour. so if you command WOT on your prop rated 140hp motor, you are commanding about 155hp at the flywheel. 0.5# x 155 x 1 would be 77.5# of fuel per...

    did he do just the deck, or was the transom and stringers done, and the foam re-done? pressure treated plywood is not a material of choice as the fiberglass does not like to stick to it. or is it bare pressure treated wood under carpet? if that is the case, post pics ASAP.

    Absolute Noob seeking advice and knowledge.

    This line scares me the most. the motor stuff is easy. however the flooring being replaced is most likely a "deck over" where they simply slapped a new wood deck over the rotten floor, stringers, foam and transom. fiberglass boats from the 80's are notoriously bad with their initial build...
