Them four hotties would cost you more than that boat.... Just sayin'

Don't know but I'll follow along just to find out. Looks like a nice ride when fixed up.

So what it the problem?

Yup, At my friends lake someone went out at night and took 4-5 motors right off the boats. They untied them from the docks and took them out in the lake and did their work. One was cut through the transom with a chainsaw, nobody heard a thing. The chainsaw one was sunk.

Yup, been there done that. I have a used boat for several years now, when I got it it had a leak. I replaced all the bellows and related stuff, Put her in and still had the same leak. Yup, it was the trim block gasket. At least now I know everything is safe.

Fill that middle swat locker with water. Easy to fill , easy to remove.

As long as you are in there, May as well replace the bellows, lower shift cable, gimble bearing and trim pucks.

Yes replace all of it. Seen this before, you are taking 50/50 chance of paying for the labor twice.

Check the anti-syphon valve at the tank/fuel pick up line. Sometimes they get debries in them restricting flow.

How about a pic of the cap? Most take a 1-1/2" hose from the filler to the tank. Any replacement of the whole unit is probably the way to go.

You can get at that without removing the gimble most times. You may have to remove the steering ram and such to get at it. Unless the motor is stuffed in a really tight spot.

Reguardless what it is.... I'd float it and see if it leaks. If not it can be saved. lol.

You have 99% water in that jar, 1% fuel. And old crappy fuel at that.

B=Battery, jump to I=Ignition, Then jump to S=Start. Or just go to a local parts store and get a new switch.

Got the parts boat free, It is drivable and runs. But the hull is very close to not being safe. Rotted. The Other larson $200.00 I rebuilt the hull. The chap was $300.00 and is fairly solid, I call it my beater boat. Them three are all runners. Parts galore. Also got a 1983 Sylvian, 21 ft for...

As stated, There are ton's of generic ones like that. I have three right now, Two Larsons, and a Chapparal. I have the the Larson and chap as runners and the other for spare parts.

Yes, there should be a bonding wire to the rudders/steering rods. Green number 8 wire. If it's not there, it will corrode.

Well yes, ignition related parts have to be approved. The only other thing I can think of right now is the circulating pump should be marine, it has the stainless impeller. I've seen the automotive ones that fail from rusty impeller.

We did that to our swimming raft years ago. sprinkled a bit of beach sand on the dive board while the paint was wet. Had to put another thin coat of paint on as it was to rough, but it worked!

Just had one the other day, it sat for a couple years then the new owner bought it without test running. Had us check it over, The impellers were shot, all hoses belts, bad, fuel hoses and fuel was yellow, really ugly. The fuel fill hoses and vent lines cracked/leaking. We got everything in...
