new to me boat and had it out for about 2 hours. No issues idling or under any RPM range. The temperature was around when 170 F. The only time the motor was shut down was back at the dock for about 10 minutes. Upon restart I had an immediate overheat alarm which...
The hatch lid was stepped on and broken in half. It was a white polycarbonate. I'd like to replace the hardware also. The boat is a 1996 Proline Cuddy Fish. the original Hardware was Bomar but I believe this has been replaced as I cannot find a match online.
Transom has been cut from outside leaving a 3" edge. I will be going back with plywood core. I'm hoping I can get a list of materials for each stage. My apologies btw, I know this topic has been beat to death but see various methods, some resins aren't compatible with all mats etc. I just want...

I'm currently restoring a 1976 Cobia center console. It has a bottom fed passive Livewell/fishbox but I'm guessing is about 40 gallon. I don't know much about these but it seems kind of scary. Can someone give me more information on how these actually work
I'm hoping someone can tell me how the original bilge pump setup. All I see so far is what looks like a wash-down pump with two short sections of hose. I see no thru Hull fitting for the bilge water exit. Just how did they set these up back in the 70s I can find very little info on this boat
I've got a 1976 Mercury 1750 that I'm removing to repower. Is currently in the opposition but wanted to lower it. I removed all the hydraulic lines associated with the very little fluid came out. Both cylinders are still stuck in the up position. Is there an easy way to support the motor and...
I've been boating for several years know my local lakes very well and have never had a need for gps on the lake. I'd like to start venturing out to the South eastern intercoastal waterways so obviously I would have to be aware of rising and lowering tides as well as finding my way around. I've...
I was doing some test on the oil pump today so I had it running with the water muffs at idle rpm and noticed that my trigger wires had been hot enough to krinkle the insulation at the switch. It's 99' Bluwater 135 and the has a white, brown and black wires. It has a stacked switch box, one set...
I recently had a low oil alarm that started right at start up at the lake. I immediately shut it down and headed home to check it out. The oil level was at the top, float and magnet were good. I disconnected the wire from the cap and still had alarm. I just had to bump the motor over and the...
I know I'm beasting a dead horse but I read so many post only to find they never came back with a resolution. Currently I'm getting a continuous rapid beep as soon as the engine starts. (1999 Mercury Bluewater 135) From what I've read it should be a cooling problem but I have a new impeller and...
Its new to me so don't have much background other than it did sit for 6 months prior to my purchase. It did have a fuel stabilizer.
Its starts easily but the RPM's are low while in the water(550-600ish). I was putting it in the water for the first time yesterday it it would stall every time. I...
I just picked up a 2000 Sea Ray Sundeck with the Commander 3000 control left uninstalled because of upholstery work. The P.O. said it shifted fine before but he got thoroughly confused trying to reinstall the control and was shifted multiple times in preinstall stage before he gave up.
So here's...
