    Not familiar with your engine, but wouldn't expect it to shake as bad as you mention. Might do some Googling to see if others have experienced similar. Weird that it goes away under power. As for hanging a new motor, I am with you on what the extra weight will actually add. Also the price is...

    JB water weld works good, or JB weld with a backing plate for the holes. As for Fiberglass on the transom, usually 2 or three is all you need. Just make sure to account for the extra thickness of the fiberglass build up when cutting your transom. SHSU

    198x SS-150 rebuild

    Use whatever you can get locally/easily. When it gets scratched, will be easy to repaint with the same color/paint. Just my 2 cents SHSU

    1987 Starcraft islander 190v?

    If you are taking bow out of the front cover, make sure the windows won't be impacted. I found my windows were designed for a curve, so going flat wouldn't have worked with the original windows. SHSU

    Second MNHunter1's concern on the solids vs blind. If your worried about strength, just add more blinds in between. SHSU

    Use Gluvit or coat it for your seams. That is what it is made for. 5200 probably wont do as well if used in that way. SHSU

    Is that the flooring? I don't think they used gelcoat, but could be wrong. Most of us replace the floor since we are doing all the other work anyways. Plenty of guys have used some form of non slip on their decks to seal/cover. SHSU

    I vote for painting with a little brown paint and calling it good. If we tried to hide every imperfection we would never finish our boats. SHSU
