My new harness only has 5 wires (green, yellow, brown, white and blue). Is it possible to attach both brown/green and brown/yellow to brown with a heat shrink...

    How to lube your steering shaft?

    Hello all, I am having a tough time with my 1993 Evinrude 48 SPL. I can't get my steering cable nut off of the shaft area so I can clean/lube it. My steering has been very tight lately and all I have been able to do so far is turn the wheel, clean as much of the shaft as I can, then turn the...

    Bearing friction

    Hello all, I have just replaced my bearings on my 16 foot boat trailer and I am still hearing a little friction. It is almost a slight grinding sound. This is the reason I decided to replace them in the first place. After the installation, the driver side seems fine, but the passenger side...

    Sticky gelcoat

    Do you know of anything I can do about my tacky gelcoat? Overall I am happy with how it looks and how the non-skid feels, but there are a few tacky spots that don't seem to be curing. Any ideas?

    Glassing a livewell

    Does anyone have any experience with glassing a livewell to the underside of the deck? I have a 25, maybe 30 gallon livewell and I am worried about the weight issue. Will 1.5 oz. CSM and 10 oz. cloth be sufficient? Thank you in advance!

    Quick deck glassing question...

    Hi Everyone, I have been racing through my resin supply using CSM for stringers & bulkheads. When I eventually coat the top surface of the deck do I need to wet out the CSM before the cloth? Can I wet the plywood, lay out the CSM and cloth then wet both from the top? I know this is a newby...

    Livewell questions

    Hi everyone, I have a 25-30 gal. livewell that needs to be glassed on to the underside of my casting deck. I haven't installed the deck yet, so I plan on glassing it before hand of course. I only have 1.5oz CSM and 10oz. cloth, and my issue is securing the livewell enough so it will stay put...

    Best method for leveling stringers/deck

    I have a concern about my re-construction, my hull isn't exactly symetrical (imagine that) Ha ha. My stringers are cut to fit but they are not level. Should I tab them in, then do a cut to the top of them? I ask because we started cutting the previous stringers and ended up too short. There...

    2 part foam installation method...

    Hi everyone, I had a question about the 2 part foam...should I place the foam before adding the deck? I have heard some on this site actually cut the foam after pouring to fit the deck in, but I am not too sure. I have noticed that there were plugs in my previous deck that may have been the...

    1993 Stratos 250V deck replacement pics

    I have cut out most of the rotten deck areas and found some troubling issues. I have found that there was no bulkhead to support the deck between the driver and passenger seatmounts. It looked as if the manufacturers relied on the foam to support some of the deck between the stringers. That...

    New deck

    Am am excited about restoring some deck-rot in my 1991 16' Stratos. After laminating the deck I want to add some texture to the white paint. Does anyone have some thoughts on what I can use? Is non-skid or additive a good idea? Thank you in advance.
