Starting a 1974 Tri-Hull Restoration, it's a Stryker Mark IV model. Need help with any information or an owners manual.

File uploads no good again?

Seems for me today, that file uploads are failing in the same way they did back in August of last year: https://forums.iboats.com/threads/photos-not-saving-to-server.773767/ Had it both on my phone earlier and now on my laptop... both were on my WiFi so technically it could be ISP related?

Well, in this week I'll be starting the registration process, trailer titled the outboard test and by the end of the month I'll have its first official test on the water for a full 6-8 hrs if all goes well. I do have plans to add a bench seat, top, and extra rod holders but those I can wait on for now, I'm itching to test the outboard and get on the water.

It's registered and insured, and I'm licensed so after this weekend I'll have the batteries to test the outboard then I'll get some fall fishing in before setting it in the hangar for the winter.

So, I got all the batteries and such, but now I've run into the problem where it cranks, but doesn't spark so I'm not really sure where the problem lies exactly

Hire a Marine Mechanic. You have no hope without one.

I hope you replaced all the rotten wood in the skeleton of the boat. You will find there is an exclusion in your insurance coverage for rotten wood frame. They call it negligence. Those 3 cylinder 70 up motors were great, I had a couple over the years. First thing to do is a compression test...any cylinder under 120# will need a rebuild. No sense investing big bucks into a worn out motor.
