Seller has an old glastron boat with 2 running motors. one is what i believe to be a 66-67 33hp johnson, and the other a 1977 johnson 50hp with controls. Trailer is nice and solid. both motors run fine. Boat will need some work, or for scrap. price for the trailer is 250 and for the boat and...
Wondering if anyone could help me identify the 2 parts noted in this picture. I have the cables and steering wheel, but i need the brackets to convert from Tiller to console. Thanks in advance!
Without going into any details..Theoretically, if you discovered that someone you have been with for 18 years was having an affair, would you just leave them? I am only looking for a blunt answer without getting into any real details here other than to say it has been a typical long term...
I was given an old merc on friday. No identification plate is evident.There are a ton of different cast in numbers, but i don't have them handy. It's a red band. Here are some pictures..Does it look familiar to anyone? It's dusty, but in excellent shape otherwise.
I was just given a 4 hp mercury outboard. It is in nice shape. It has the red banding on the cowling. i don't have any #'s from it yet..Any idea what years the the red banding was placed on the cowl's?
Hello all.. I was recently gifted a ventless Natural Gas stove with the fake logs in it..Nice little unit. I don't use natural gas though.. I have all propane hookups. It is a Winrich Perfecta 40,000 btu model, and the company seems to have gone away sometime in the late 90's. None of the local...
Looking at a 1988? Yamaha 9.9 outboard. Model is ft9.98xf Which i believe translates to a 4 stroke 9.9 electric and manual start, X=25" shaft maybe? Looks awesome, runs great but not above idle. I know yammies have a good following, and im thinking the worst i would do is part it back out for...
Hey there.. At the recycle center i found a decrepid old Skip Jack with a Wilcox Crittenden cable type steering system in it. Thought it would look great in my 1957 arkansas traveller tinny. It needs new cables, and i cant seem to figure out if the center cap just pop's off, or is threaded..It's...
Have a chance to barter my 77 british seagul in mint condition for an Achilles 9.7' inflatable hypalon boat. The boat needs a small patch, but in otherwise good condition. i have never owned an inflatable boat before, and somehow, the words inflatable and boat, ( and fishing) don't seem to go...
Speaking tounge and cheek of course, but over the weekend my buddy bought a real nice looking 64 johnson 9.5 before consulting me. Sure enough has the exhaust leak under the hood issue, and even after doing a complete carb rebuild, and points cleaning, coil replacing day, the darn thig runs just...
HAs 96 lbs compression per side. Bright blue snappy spark, but will not fire up. Carburation aside, wont even fire with fuel in the plug holes. Had it running but discovered the needle tip broken in the carb. Had to drill it out. I know it will run poorly maybe until i can get another carb, but...
Neighbor just got a 14' grumman with this old girl, and it looks like it's worth saving. Having spark issues though. Wires and boots were corroded. so far i have done the following. Compression is at 96 psi per cyl. Took the flywheel off, and inspected. one coil was cracked, so that was...
Wanted to get rid of 50 plus years of paint on my Arkansas traveller, so..Off to buy aircraft remover i go. I didn't take pictures of the entire process, but it was not fun at all. I started with this..5 coats of paint starting from 1957 until recently..
Then quickly last year gave it a coat...
