    Aqua Power 95001 Heavy Duty Docking Light upgrades?

    Found out the original had 30,000 cp! Not sure if this the old candle power rating or new. Going to be tougher to find a replacement LED with these numbers. No wonder they come on slow!

    1958 Crestliner Vagabond

    Hello all. I just picked up a 1958 Vagabond that needs restored. Looking for any and all info I can find. I've gotten a few things off fiberclassics.com. It looks to have only been built in 1957 (for $3236.00) and 1958 (call dealer for price). She's 22' with twin Fisher Pierce Bear Cat 55s...

    Aqua Power 95001 Heavy Duty Docking Light upgrades?

    Good ideas. I guess I'd have disassemble a unit and see how and if the bulb can be switch out from the internals. I was hoping someone had the light assembly that would be a direct switch out in the frame.

    1965 deep c

    I have a "56 with the seat back option on front two seats looking for a set for the third seat. My numbers are on the a plate mounted to the wood transom, so if the transom has been reworked the plate may have been left off.

    1956 Alumacraft Deep-C

    MTdeepc, I too have a '56 Deep C and I'm over by Lake Blaine. Maybe we can hook up and commiserate about our aluminum illness/addiction.

    Vintage Alumacraft Deep-C ?

    I know it's an old thread but if the bench was drilled into to install the existing aftermarket seats it probably eliminated some of the flotation. One of Aluma Crafts big selling point was the benches were basically air tight boxes for flotation if ever swamped. Great boats! I have a '56...

    1956 Aluma Craft Deep "C" seat back option

    I have a Deep "C" that I'm bringing back that has the seat back option on two of the three seats. I would like to find a third set of the aluminum brackets and even the tube frame to add this to my third (rear seat) if anyone knows where to find a set. The frame is not as big a deal as I could...

    Aqua Power 95001 Heavy Duty Docking Light upgrades?

    I would love to find a replacement LED bulb assembly that would swap out the existing bulb to achieve a brighter output and less electrical draw. A stainless trim accent ring that would go on over the white outer edge would look nicer without replacement of the entire unit. There are a lot...

    I have a '94 Cobalt 272 with a set of Aqua Power 95001 Heavy Duty Docking Lights which I'm sure were cutting edge in '94...

    Early Cobalt Seat Help Needed

    My seat post OD is 2 7/8". Called Cobalt and they were able to give me an Attwood part number for the entire pedestal of 75513-30. Attwood has no record of that number. They recommend I call Garelick which they bought out several years ago thinking it could be one of theirs. Left messages...

    Duo prop seal replacement

    I built a lower unit holder out of a Harbor Freight moving dolly and some 2xs. Just got the lower unit out and in the garage for the winter service. Both anodes, billows kit, rubber exhaust flap, and seal kits on the way. What other items are recommended to be inspected and or serviced at...

    Duo prop seal replacement

    Ok. I may have made some headway. I believe the top kit is the and the 876266 bottom is the 876267. Am I correct in assuming I'll need both kits to perform a reseal?

    Duo prop seal replacement

    I'm just not sure this 876266 is the kit I needed. It's States DP - D1. But when I punch that number into Google on certain sites it shows as possible upper unit kit. Which I may need as well. I don't know. Here is another page that has a break down of parts but shows no "kit"...

    Duo prop seal replacement

    Got on volvopentastore.com and sight is not great to navigate or get descriptions. If I am correct, the seal kit I need for a dp-d1 is https://www.volvopentastore.com/Gasket-Kit/dm/cart_id.976598230--session_id.129158069--store_id.366--view_id.305751 It gives no info on what is included. I...

    Duo prop seal replacement

    Whoa! I was thinking this was a seal that would be pried out or drill and run some screws in to push out. Here's to hoping my d1 is set up different to a sm!

    Duo prop seal replacement

    Scott. Can you give me any direction on lower unit removal? Unable to find a manual. Also a list of recommended replacement parts and things to check while off? Found a couple of videos that doesn't make it look too difficult. Other than prop removal and purchasing and installing missing...

    Duo prop seal replacement

    Hi all. I have a dp-d1 I believe which is new to me this past summer. Finding lower unit oil looking a little milky even after changing it and only running it about five afternoons. I finally got around to pressure testing and at 3lbs. held fine at 10 min. I took the pressure up to 10lbs...

    Top Speed Issues

    For those of you who have been following/helping, I thought I'd give a final update. Got her out again finally on third (if include original tank full of old fuel) tank of gas. Running better. Idle came up on it's own (which I originally had to bump up) enough that I had to adjust it back...

    Fresh fuel, 2nd OEM fuel filter, throttle linkage slack taken up, secondaries on four barrel carb unstuck and functioning. Now seeing 4150 rpms and 37 mph with eight people. May try new spark plugs, cap, rotor, wires in the spring. Check timing? Engine specs say 4200-4600 rpms. 4500 would...
