Re: help!!!!!

Sorry i dont have no pics of that process lol but when i ripped up the floor and the stringers out it wasnt that wet, and the stringers wasnt totally rotten they were just wet they still had plenty of strength the guy i got it from kept it in a barn pretty much its whole life until last year but he kept it covered up and a few days in the sun dried up my foam, it cant stay wet forever, so idk we'll find out in a couple years right?

Maybe... ya might get lucky... depends on what kind of foam ya got I guess. I had a foam hot tub cover that got saturated with water, cover went from about 20lbs to maybe 200. Took the foam out, layed it on my deck in the blazing sun for days, then I put it in my shed, which was like a big pizza oven for another MONTH. I bet only about 15% of the water dried out. had to toss it. So maybe if your foam was just wet and not soaked, u will be alright;):D lets hope

Re: help!!!!!

Ok so i worked on the ol ray today and i did what everybody sd to push the throttle all the way down and pump it a couple times, worked like a charm!!! So i fooled around with the wiring a lil bit and got the blower workin again yay lol and i found some more wires thag went to the back light they were kinda jerry rigged to go straight to the battery idk what happened there so i gotta rewire that i looked into the tach and temp gauge.and holysheet thats alot of wires and on my trim pump my out button makes the pump come on but the up and in buttons do nothing idk if its a bad switch? Or bad pump that looks like a nightmare so any help on that would be appreciated. Ok when i asked if the boat can be driven with no trim or tilt, wouldnt the motor try to rise out of the water in reverse? Or is there something i need to do to keep it down? Well thats all for now lol i think
