    1980 Mercury 150 Not Firing One Cylinder When Cold

    I have a question for anyone who may be able to help. I have a 1980 Mercury 150 that has been giving me a little grief as of late. I have had some "bogging" issues when cold. I'll push the throttle out in the water and the boat seems to barely get on plain, then out of the blue, it seems to...

    1978 Continental Supreme 21 Cuddy Cabin Restoration 1980 Mercury 150 Power

    I picked up a 1978 Continental Supreme 21 with a 1980 Mercury 150 on the back. I found this online as part of an estate. It was rack stored for 15 years and well maintained until this United States veteran took ill. Unfortunately this man passed and his daughter was kind enough to sell me...

    Re: Continental boats? 1976 I have heard they are a good hull, I just bought one last week. Rack stored for YEARS with a Merc 150 on the back. Not a bad boat from what I hear.

    1972 Starcraft Super Sport 16' Conversion to Center Console

    Re: 1972 Starcraft Super Sport 16' Conversion to Center Console This is how we resolved the folding windshield issue. Because the windshield wasn't flush with the sides of the console, we couldn't use a latch. The original way of making it work was to mechanical. This simplified everything.

    Re: 1972 Starcraft Super Sport 16' Conversion to Center Console So guess what.... DONE! We tried to take it out yesterday but that just didn't work out. The ramps were still closed, not sure why, the walleye are biting! Here are some shots of the finishing touches. This is the anchor...

    1972 Starcraft Super Sport 16' Conversion to Center Console

    Re: 1972 Starcraft Super Sport 16' Conversion to Center Console We worked on cutting out our Step2 play mats to fit the deck of the bow. This will serve as our pad for hanging out in the sun this summer. We got them cut out perfectly, only problem is sticking them to the deck. The deck is...

    1972 Starcraft Super Sport 16' Conversion to Center Console

    Re: 1972 Starcraft Super Sport 16' Conversion to Center Console Suns out and 70 degrees, you better believe I am painting the hull today. Those of you that piped in on my question last week won me over, I think it's best to paint the hull. Even if it's just a little part of it. It makes the...

    Re: 1972 Starcraft Super Sport 16' Conversion to Center Console Here are a few shots of the boat so far. Not much left to do. Still deciding whether or not I paint the hull.

    1972 Starcraft Super Sport 16' Conversion to Center Console

    Re: 1972 Starcraft Super Sport 16' Conversion to Center Console In the front of the boat on both sides I added some rod holders. I also added a cleat for bumpers. This should make adjusting length on the fly much easier now.

    Re: 1972 Starcraft Super Sport 16' Conversion to Center Console After the paint dried, we attached the windshield, components, and steering wheel. I also added the fish finder as well. The console is set up and complete. We used a lot of the old parts in order to set up this windshield...

    Re: 1972 Starcraft Super Sport 16' Conversion to Center Console After painting the console we decided to pull off the motor lid and start looking at the gas leak. I noticed that the crimps on all my hoses were leaking when I pumped the ball. After calling Ravenna Marine for parts, I learned...

    1972 Starcraft Super Sport 16' Conversion to Center Console

    Re: 1972 Starcraft Super Sport 16' Conversion to Center Console We attached the hatch on the bow seats. We need to come up with some sort of latch to keep it down when motoring.
