    Bulkhead Stress Crack Repair

    Sorry for the delay in the reply, it will be a few days until I can get back to the boat for the additional pics. Mike, everything I had read recommended the bulkhead is cut to fit with a slight gap everywhere it meets the hull. When it's attached there is a softer material placed such as...

    Bulkhead Stress Crack Repair

    These are pics from when we bought the boat. At first I thought they were impact cracks but then a fiberglass guy was looking at our neighbors boat and I asked his opinion and he said it looks like the bulkhead is setting right against the fiberglass on the back side and creating a hot spot on...

    Mercruiser B4S Conversion

    Thanks for the info all, I will give tech support a call. I did see that the draft is deeper and that you can’t trim the drive up as high as our B3. The good thing is that the lake we boat on is deep with very few shallow areas and the boat sits on a lift so we don’t trailer it any more. I...

    I have a 1995 Crownline 225BR with a carbureted 350 Mag engine, Thunderbolt V ignition with knock sensor, and an Alpha 1 Gen II drive. I have an occasional situation where the engine will act like the key has been shut off for a split second and then immediately return to running fine. This...
