Hello All. I am new to this forum and a new boat owner.
I was given a 1991 Sunbird Prowler I 16.5' Bass Boat (V-Hull/Fibreglass). Everything is in GREAT Condition. What I am lloking for are the: Ooccupancy Cpacities, Gas Tank Capacities, Electrical Diagrams - just abou Anything I could get on it. I took it out on it's Maiden Voyage (For me, that is) this weekend, and have some minor glitches in keeping the engine running/at speed.
I have an Evinrude 70HP (1991), 3-Cyl O/B with Trim.
I have already had to replace several Electrical Items: Bilge Pump, Battery, Power Cabling to the FIsh Finder and the Lights (Anch/Nav). I have also had to replace almost all the switches on the dashboard - Bilge/Curtousey and Anch/Nav. (All were a little corroded, etc) The Hull is in Great Shape (No real blemishes or nicks, etc.) The Rubber Bumper Surround is all gone, exposing the Top Cap rivets, etc. I do have some SMall cracking int he TOP Cap section in various places. I will have to replace ALL Carpet, etc. mainly redo the top cap section of boatd as far as cosmetics goes, etc. Thanks for ANY help on what I am getting myself into! I don't mind the REWORK, etc. and am NOT scared to do anything.
