    Tach still doesn't work...or maybe the Rectifier doesn't...? NOW FIXED!

    I can't get this old Airguide tach to work. It reads nothing wired to the control box and pegs out at 7K RPM with the brown wire switched to the yellow wire coneection. Is it safe to assume I need a recitifier? Where would be a good place to source one? Thanks!

    Bimini size for 18' Starcraft SS...pic request

    Hello all...I am going to order a Bimini for my boat. I have decided on sunbrella fabric and measured the width at 74" and it will be 6' long. But I can't decide on the height. I am leaning towards a 36" height for cosmetic reasons and the fact that I am only 5'8". Can you all post some...

    Another tach question...or maybe volt meter...1972 1150

    Hello all, I am trying to get the tach working before I put this thing on the water. There are 3 wires coming out of the control box to the tach. Two wires go into the tach through a rubber grommet and one wire runs to the volt meter. Is the volt meter where the tach gets 12v+ from? My volt...

    Stream still weak on 72 1150 after impeller change...SOLVED!

    I replaced the impeller this morning. It was a realatively easy job. I also replace the upper pump housing because the housing looked like it got a little hot and had some groves in it. It all went back together easily and I got her refired...but the stream still seems weak running on...

    Fuel tank connections?

    I just ran all new fuel lines two my switch and two six gallon portable tanks. At the tanks I used a "Yamaha" style connector. Will these work on my 72 1150 Merc, or do I need a Mercury specific connector? Thanks!

    Another Bunk Question...

    Tomorrow I am starting the conversion on my trailer from a roller to bunk set up for an aluminum 18ft Starcraft SS. My plan... Two 2X6 bunks around 10' long supported by three trailer crossmembers. Those will support from under the transom up to where the hull starts curving up. The front...

    72 1150 Merc on a 73 Starcraft SS

    Hello all... I just bought my first boat. She is an 18ft Starcraft SS with an 1150 Merc (3367838) on the back. Any way of knowing if this is the original power for the boat? Anyway I get her home today and she fired right up after I changed the battery. It is missing, but idles and engages...

    1973 Super Sport...I bought it!

    Ok everyone...I am over the little glasser I was looking at. I have moved on to this one. It is an 18' 1973 SS with a 115 Merc on the back. The hull is scratched...from the not so hot looking trailer, but looks solid. The interior was done years ago and the Merc has low hours on it. It is...

    1969 Seaking/Starcraft Bahama? **PICS ADDED!**

    Hello everyone! I am looking at purchasing a boat. It is a 1969 Seaking Model number 28150. Looks to be similar to a Starcraft Bahama. It is a super clean little boat. 55 Chrysler runs good and the hull looks great...but...the transom has had the fiberglass cut to expose the deck, which...
