    1974 Sea Ray SRV 240 Weekender - complete rebuild, refit, and who knows what else...

    Bimini top question

    My previous boat, a 1987 Rinker V190, had a convertible top. If you can find one or have one made it will protect you from the wind and rain. It had the side curtains. Just fold down your bimini and put on the convertible top.

    Am I the only one considering back to back vs pedistal seats?

    If there is enough room I would only put B2B on the port side. That leaves you with the room on the starboard to still put the cooler where it is in your pic. That's how my old Rinker was set up.

    Bunk Carpet

    I am probably going to change my bunk carpet this winter. I have found that some have a rubber backing and some have an acrylic backing. Any pros or cons on either of these types?

    Just acquired a 170 Horizon. Assembly required.

    The carport idea is a good one. It won't keep you warm in the winter but will keep you and the boat dry. It is a lot easier to get in and out of the boat than removing the cover a million times. Here is mine with my previous boat.

    Trim/tilt switch on motor 2002 Suzuki DF140

    The trim/tilt switch on the remote control works fine. The switch on the side of the engine works fine going up. Going down it only works when it feels like it. I assume the relay is fine as it does work from the remote control. Any ideas why it won?t go down on the engine switch? I could...
