    Transom mounted Transducer

    I used a Sternsaver block on mine. (http://sternsaver.com/) It seems to work well. You "glue" the block onto the boat, and then drill into the block.

    Newbie Question

    Copying from Chris' response elsewhere. 30W oil will work, or you can use ATF. Just don't mix the two. You want to match what is currently in there. If you don't know, you may need to flush it. Welcome aboard.

    Just thought I'd share a nice photo.

    Already home. Was only able to make a half week outta' the scheme, and had to be back in the saddle today. So I was up there Thursday through Sunday, drove home yesterday. If I can figure some cheaper accommodations, I'll do it again. Probably go earlier in the week and stay at least one more day.

    @Scott Danforth thought about you and WIMUSKY on the way up. Had to stay in New London because I didn't book soon, and I was working a good hunk of the show in an exhibit. If I go again, I'll for sure have you suggest some places. Had a really good pike dinner at a place called The Waters in...

    Two oddballs that were fun to read about: Blackfly is a light aircraft that will fly sort of like a RC Quadcopter. They are supposed to start delivering them in the next two years, but I don't know if that is US or overseas. They've got about 4,000 flights in this thing. This is a Yak110. Look...

    For the car guys: Tons of the different GPs running around. Took this shot as a reminder to mention it to one of my kids: Factor Five was there too ...

    Just thought I'd share a nice photo.

    @GA_Boater I have a few more. I didn't take too many ... didn't take the good camera, wasn't quite aware of what I would see and I certainly couldn't get good shots of them in the air. This is the cockpit of the C140 above. Another Travelair ... I'm not really familiar with these. Gotta' look...

    Never been this close to a Spitfire before. Stinson Reliant has always been a favorite. And a beautiful Cessna 140

    P40 Warhawk and a P38 Lightning. Only a couple of the planes here. I've never been to Oshkosh / Air Venture before, and I'm absolutely amazed at it. That is the Goodyear blimp. He did some night demonstrations that were pretty fun to watch. Heat dome wasn't too bad. The locals thought it was...

    1969 Glassmaster 17' trihull

    Not sure. I'm not really familiar with that engine.

    1969 Glassmaster 17' trihull

    That's an OMC electric shift. In 1969 there was only one V6 for them Buick/Jeep 225. You should find a tag on the engine somehwere - typically rear engine mount - and it should read something like HUFM-69M

    New to omc bought I think 78

    Yank the drive from the boat. Separate the upper and lower gear case. Impeller is at the bottom of the upper gear case. Make sure the upper gear case will turn by hand/hand tool. If it will, then you're in good shape there. If it doesn't then you might have a locked up upper gear case. With the...

    1969 Glassmaster 17' trihull

    You want to figure out two things: which engine and which drive. Your drive could be Mercruiser, OMC or Volvo. Black is most likely Mercruiser, white is either Volvo or OMC. The engine is most likely a Ford or Chevy. Photos of the drive should tell pretty quickly what you have there. There...

    Boat identification

    Welcome aboard. No idea who's it is. As likely as not it's a Sears or Montgomery Ward, but you can do some looking HERE and see if it matches anything.

    2002 Mercruiser 3.0 Bayliner Capri 1750 speed/rpm

    3.0 in a 1750 should go faster at WOT. Your RPMs should be up closer to 4800 and your top speed should be closer to 40. I cruise in my 1950 at about 3200, making about 30MPH. Same prop as you.
