I'm looking to buy a hydraulic crimping tool for battery cables, automotive and boat. I've never used a hydraulic crimper, but they look like a better option than soldering on cable lugs. I don't have an issue soldering on lugs, but have a project that a crimper would work much better than...
Something like this:

Double clamp all fuel hose fittings and only use A1 marine fuel hose. You'll need a couple hose barb fittings to go along with the fuel filter...
This type of filler?
Look at the pic closely, there is an O-ring at the bottom of the cap. Sounds like your water issue if it's missing.
As for removing the entire filler housing (metal part) it's going to be a royal pain as the hose is very rigid, reinforced, and formed to the fitting after...
Looks like you're good to go on the tank brackets, wood and rubber are perfect. Not sure why they changed to aluminum brackets, but it was a mistake causing them a recall, almost like tying to keep the tank in place with a knife...
What ever flotation you remove, you need to replace.
I cut open the seat bulkheads in my jon boat, rolled the edge over 3/4", then lined the entire compartment with 2" sheet foam. The foam block inside the bulkhead had more volume than what I put back into the compartment, so be aware you may...
2-fer tonight. I don't think I have seen a picture this obtuse in an add before. (Probably doesn't need TLC, but funny none the less)

Noticed all the rods laying on the deck. Here's what I did to store rods when I rebuilt my Superhawk 1800.
Pretty much the same thing on the starboard side to stow the stern light, gaff and a couple short rods
Post up a picture of the plug and receptacle. If it's a Marinco 12/24 setup, all 4 battery cables run to the receptacle and then the 24v series jumper is made inside the plug.
The clear disk on the back side of the plug has writing on it (-, 12 and 24) showing where to connect the wires. The...
Sounds like a nice fishing rig at a great price. I have an 18'er too, Crestliner, and troll for stripers with a 70# MK PowerDrive (non-AP). I get 4-5 hours of trolling out of a pair of group 29 batteries, or all day casting. My rig is pretty heavy, so you'll probably get more time trolling than...
Check the shift interrupt switch and see if it is connected to ground or +12V, it needs to be connected to +12V for the EST ignition. The TB4 diagram I found shows that the shift interrupt switch is connected to ground, which could be bad for the EST.
OK that link didn't work, let's try this...
Re: Crestliner Voltage Gauge Removal??
Yup... Stick your phone/camera up behind the dash and snap a bunch of pics at different angles, so you can see what's going on.
What brand of gauge is it? Their website may be of help figuring out how the gauge is secured. I've seen some gauges with a...
Re: calling all lake mead boaters! nevada
:first: And we have a winner! It's a turbine, part of a hoover dam generator that gets pushed by water. The turbines are massive, about 15' across and 4' high.
They had a dozen of them laying out in the desert along the old railroad hiking trail...
