first, welcome aboard
second, get a factory manual for your motor and drive
third, there is no searay manual for the boat, they dont exist.
regarding your bimini, see your local canvas and marine upholstery shop.
you have to re-stab the distributor properly. when inserting the distributor, the rotor will turn as the distributor is installed. make sure to have the rotor pointing close to the #1 cylinder tower on the cap (just get it close, you have to set timing), and the distributor will sit a bit...
I wouldnt be beaching a pontoon with an IO if the drive is not in deep enough water to trim up.
the prop is the least of your worries, burying the drive in the muck and sucking muck into the impeller taking it out should be your worry.
as racerone pointed out, you need a depth finder
Carnac says....... you have a 1962 renault motor and a 1 barrel carb, or a 1996 7.4 liter and a 4 barrel carb or a 2013 4.3 and a 2-barrel....
you get the point..... what year, what motor, what induction...... etc.
could be dirt in the carb
could be a leak in the line between the pump and the...
welcome aboard.
you will be hard pressed to find information that was printed in 1969 and most likely thrown away in 1970. you wont find much on the internet unless someone saved that printed material, then took the printed material from 1969 and then digitized it, and posted it on the...
are you sure that is not the floor cooler that simply drains to the bilge" if so, you cant use it as a livewell.

welcome aboard.
get the carburetor sorted out. leaking carbs lead to boat explosions if not taken care of.
not sure which hack marina you took your boat too.
Rochester carburetors are known to leak at the welsh plugs. also, if the float or needle and seat are bad, they will over-fill the...
Only if its marine. It has to have the SAE 1171 certification
I would never use an electric fuel pump if a mechanical is an option
A $45 mechanical pump will outlast a $90. Marine electric pump, a $20 oil pressure switch and the relay and wiring needed
let me guess, you have the original bat wing exhaust manifolds? those leak, cause the valve and rings to rust
other possible issue is your timing was off and you burned holes in the pistons.
because when a hot rod carb leaks, the fuel is on the ground and air dissipates it. if the car is moving, the driver never knows it
however in a boat, when a boat leaks fuel, it leaks into the bilge. gas fumes are heavier than air, so the fumes build up until your non-marine...
