    Looking at Nauticstar 222 SC I/O. Opinions?

    My wife's boss has a 2012 Nauticstar 222 SC I/O that he is looking to sell. I still don't have a price. He is the type that pays for things to be taken care of, and he does do it.

    Repair/Replace 30 year old motor

    Not sure which section this should be in since I have several questions. I have an '85 Sylvan Super Sportster (18' aluminum fish/ski) with a 90hp Evinrude that is in the shop and look to be about $1000-1400 for repairs. The lower unit leaks, they worry the shaft seals are bad, and it will need...

    '85ish Evinrude 90hp Questions

    Tilt/Trim general info?

    I recently was given an '84 Sylvan 18ft by my Dad, that has a 90hp Evinrude on it. The tilt/trim unit quit working several years ago and Dad has taken the unit off the boat.

    Intro... no, not Nitro, INTRO

    Good afternoon ladies and gents. I thought I'd introduce myself. After mentioning to my Dad that I was looking to buy a boat for my fiance and myself he finally caved in and said he would give me his old boat. I'm not inheriting a 1984 18' Sylvan Super Sportster w/ an Evinrude 90 hp O/B. It has...

    Minor? Floor repair

    We are looking at a '93 Sprint fish/ski and it has some serious weak spots around the ski storage in the floor (don't know what this area is called.) I am sure we'll have to pull the seats up, part of the carpet and floor, but I am wondering how much we'll have to pull up, and how much work is...

    Seat repair

    We are currently looking at buying a '93 Sprint fish/ski boat. The seat's foam/vinyl is in pretty bad shape. Can anyone give me ideas of how much money/work I am looking at to replace these? I am mainly concerned about the cost of the seats at this point, as the floor is something that I can...
