    RE: Issues with Mercruiser 5.0 LX 4 Barrel Carb

    Take heart friend. Older boats require patience and TLC. You’re learning along the way, and that experience is invaluable.

    First plane ride/snow !

    Hey while you’re in the snow belt you ought to get ya a snowmobile and go for a ride. It’s a ton of fun, nothing you’ll ever experience in Florida. Heck it’s a rarity in Pennsylvania at this point.

    Chaparral 2000 SL Sport floor, and more?? [SPLASHED Sept 2017]

    Frozen water toys take precedence when it’s cold, however I got the sewing machine brought up to my standard. Replaced the laminate top with butcher block and added a servo motor. Now it looks nice enough to move out of the garage and into the house. I’ll have a few projects to complete to get...

    Chaparral 2000 SL Sport floor, and more?? [SPLASHED Sept 2017]

    Nothing yet. I have a couple small upholstery projects I want to get done before I put needle to vinyl. Several other mechanical projects have taken precedence right now. When family have things that need repaired, I’m usually the one that fixes them, lol.

    2022 Splash Of The Year Winner!

    Ain’t that the truth. I think they can only be finished when you sign over the title to someone else, lol.

    Finished the swing away hitch on the trailer. Now I won’t get my feet wet when I launch, and it still fits in the garage.

    1981 Citation Marquis restoration...

    Most of the why’s in assembly line boats can be summed up to time and money. Why do they use chop guns over hand laid glass? Why roving instead of 1708 and CSM? Why aren’t the stringers better fit with a 1/4” gap and filled with thickened resin and chop? Why are there voids in the pourable foam...

    Engine Bed Fabrication

    Mine were dimensional lumber glued together with PL, then PB’d in place. Multiple layers of 1708 to tab in place and build final height.

    Got the servo motor and a thread stand today. Went with the Consew Chinesium servo instead of the other brand Cinesium servos. It’s amazing how much smaller and lighter this DC motor is over the same hp clutch motor.

    Thoughts on this boat?

    I agree, not a bad price for the motor. The boats definitely gonna need some work. Should make a fine fishing boat eventually. It won't be breaking any speed records, but should get you to the fish.....eventually.

    Well it's buoyant if it's still closed foam and doesn't absorb water. It is also sound deadening. It also provides structure and rigidness to the hull which is necessary in some boats. Its a multifunctional must have in smaller boats.

    building a full cabin over cockpit

    I think you would be better off selling the one you have, then buying a small cuddy or something that more suits your needs.

    Chaparral 2000 SL Sport floor, and more?? [SPLASHED Sept 2017]

    Well, this thread continues. The vinyl upholstery on this 1990 Chap is original and has lasted quite long. Over time, vinyl begins to lose its supple feel and starts to harden. Many of the seams begin to fall apart and the whole interior shows its age. Early in this rebuild I replaced all the...
