    1990 3 hp Evinrude specs.

    Hey All, Just purchased a 1990 3 hp Evinrude 2 cylinder and am trying to collect information about it. I read that it is a salt water motor and water cooled but I have yet to find the mix ratio. I figured on going with 50:1 for my "barrel" test and tune, but wanted to be sure of the...

    89 Bayliner Trophy 21ft CC

    I really would not call this a restoration, it's more the normal upkeep of a part time usage boat. Mostly I just wanted to post some pictures of it, a few of when I first got it home and in my shop and others of how it looks now. Although not much was needed but a good cleaning, there are a few...

    Old Starcraft Aluminum boats

    In my quest to find the manufacture of my 14 ft closed bow runabout, I have noticed that there are very few pictures of Starcrafts. I wonder why that is. I read that they have been in business since the late 1800's. I think the reason I can't find older pictures (earlier than the 50's) from most...
