The link to the pics isn't working for me.

 

[Ejipner]

I am having a hard time getting the pics to link on here tonight. Maybe just to many people on here or my wifi is slow. I will try again tomorrow

If you use the clipboard icon in the upper right and add the pic link to the upload to url your pics will look like this in the post.

 

[Ejipner]

Thank you. Let me try

 

[Ejipner]

Well still not right... It says invalid url

 

[Watermann]

With the pic open all the way, right click n the pic and copy image address. Open the clipboard, upload from url and paste in the link. I choose large and this is what I get.

 

[Ejipner]

Well I can't seem to get it to upload right. But here is the bracket for the etec. Did some more work today, hopefully some priming of the transom trim and splash well tomorrow, I'm also hoping to get the boat cleaned out on the inside, it has turned into a trash bin for rivets and other things boat related. If I can get it cleaned out then gulvit tomorrow as well.

This is what it says when I try to upload pics using the url

 

[Watermann]

It means the link you're feeding the URL line has no photo extension ie: jpg

The URL should look like this when you paste it in the line https://i.imgur.com/g2Ce7qG.jpg but you're not opening the pic up full size and then copying the image address after right clicking on the image, you're copying it from the address line.

Then it will look like this

Oh I get it now. Sorry for being so thick

thank you watermann

I have to use my computer to upload pics. It won't let me do it like that from my iPad.

thank you watermann for all the help


on another note.... Steering...... Do I buy new cables and the whole set up or do I upgrade to hydraulic because I need new everything anyways.

 

[Watermann]

I purchased the Seastar 4.2 NFB rotary helm kit that comes with a helm and cable for my SS. The NFB is really nice as it doesn't allow any feed back from the motor end of the cable. I would at least buy a new cable if your helm is good. I had an old rack and pinion so it was a must to upgrade. The Chief has a good rotary helm so I just bought a new cable since it has power steering there was no need for an NFB helm.

So I injured my ankle about a month ago, really put a hold on the build. I have a load of parts I need to get installed. I got the bay star hydraulic steering kit, new wiring for the motor, new controls. I need to build a console first. I want to get the hard top built before snow flys as well. Now that I'm not gimping around I have a lot to do in the next couple weeks.

 

[Watermann]

Oh yeah a resto blitz before old man winter grabs you by the you know whutz... :lol:

What Watermann said, I was hot and heavy on my boat as of late, I have been trying to get it done for fall Perch. I am missing it by a little... I also need to buy new batteries but don't want to until spring, lol. Keep pressing man!
