Re: my 1980 starcraft holiday 181 restore
yep pulled the old alt apart and sure enough its toast
did some shopping around locally to find,, just like everything else canadians
get screwed for everything, best price i could find was 325 plus regulator another 50.
Hope i did the right thing i got a marine, one wire replacement alt.
off of ebay new for 99 dollars, there were 3 different ones 65A 120A and 160A
i went with the 65A figure its as much or more than the stock one and is easy
to install with no need to upgrade wiring. alt and regulator all in one (newer style) .
just a matter of time to get it here.
still think i will be putting the boat in the water this weekend to test run it should be fine
if i charge it up good,
and while its off the trailer do some repairs to the trailer
hope i dont get stopped still haven't gotten a license just another 50 dollars
i dont want to spend!
