I just picked up a 1974 John Allmand 23' powered by a 188hp Mercruiser. It has sat for a few years and was winterized before being stored. I have a question about some wires coming off the carb. On my boat the wires from the carb (guessing it's for the choke) are just coiled up and zip tied to...
I'm on the hunt for a baby king lower and stumbled across a lower online that has me confused
It is pictured in my first two pictures.
Seller says it came off a Big Block but doesn't know anything else.
It doesn't look like exactly like a Cobra or a King Cobra
Pictured in my last 2 pictures...
I was recently given a really clean 87' Bayliner 2850 that is powered by a 460 Ford. The engine and boat are in great shape but the drive is missing. The engine runs great and only has 289hours so I think it's worth putting the money into.
I have searched high and low and cannot find any info...
I am in the process of restoring/redoing a 1971 Carver 2780 and am wondering what is the best covering/sealer for the wood on decks and cabin. The hull was in amazing shape but the deck had some rot which I had cut out and am in the process of replacing. The deck was originally covered in fabric...
I recently just picked up a 1971 Carver 26 powered by a 235hp 307GM and an OMC drive. The boat sat for a number of years but after doing a tune-up it fired right up. I bought the boat from the estate of the original owner who passed away but nobody knew anything about the boat except that it was...
Recently purchased a 1986 Starfire Westport 265 from a charity off eBay and am having trouble figuring out the closed cooling system. The boat originally came from Long Island and somewhere along the line closed cooling was added for running in saltwater. My problem is that when the boat was...
I recently picked up 1998 Four winns 180 Horizom with a cracked engine block for a pretty good deal
When I got the boat the intake was removed and the fuel injection system was partially dismantled to diagnose the internal crack, I went through all the work of removing the engine, swapping...
I recently purchased a 1965 Pearson 28 that needs some work. The boat is actually in very good shape structurally but cosmetically its pretty rough. It looks like somebody painted everything with house paint, there are brush strokes everywhere and its cracking and chipping away. The sides are...
I have a 1991 Bayliner 2255 Cabin Cruiser that was missing the prop when I purchased the boat. It is powered by a newer 4.3L Vortec V6 which is 190HP. The boat is probably under powered but also only weighs 3600lbs dry. I had a spare 14x19 prop sitting in my garage so I through it on the boat...
I recently purchased a 1978 24' Cruisers with a OMC 800 and 235hp Ford V8. The boat is very clean and orginal but the trim doesnt work and the tilt doesnt work. The boat has two good batteries in it and they will start the engine no problem but when I hit either switch all I hear are the...

The boat still has the orginal controls, shaft, and prop.
Hi Everyone I need help I bought a boat with a 85Force outboard that had a new powerhead installed but the guy never finished the wiring. I really need some pictures of pretty much all the electrical on the motor to see where it all goes and where things like the starter relay and the trim...
I have a 1978 140HP Johnson that was given to me by a friend on trade for a smaller motor. He said it was running rough after sitting for a few years and just died. Now it seems like its locked up. The flywheel only moves about an inch each way. I pulled the plugs the shined a flash light down...
