    Ice damage clean-up

    Went up to my in-laws lake house yesterday to check out the damage form the ice-storm back in February. They're in Florida! We got most of it cleaned up, but the branch in the lake is going to take more than we can muster. We got lucky, and it only damaged the wheel on the small lift...find...

    Max rpm range for 1980 330 MIE Merc I/B: 3800-4200 (look in your manual dummy)

    I need some help confirming the max rpm range for my inboard. The engine is a model 1980 MIE 330-454 cid. I'm having trouble finding the information without making a trip to the barn where the boat is stored and getting it off the engine. I looked in the Mercruiser #3 manual and it's not...

    Restoration of Bar/Cabinet on Century Coronado

    Not a full restoration thread...but wanted to post this anyway. I just completed a restoration of the bar/cabinet on the rear of the engine dog house on my 1980 Coronado......been taking some heat in another thread for not using marine grade. We'll see how it lasts. It's just a birch veneer...

    What Propeller was specified for the 1980 Coronado

    I posted this several days ago in the propeller thread with no replies. I'm hoping someone here may have an answer. I have a 1980 Century Coronado with a popeller that allows the engine to over rev significantly. I'm thinking I may need to jump the pitch up 3 or 4 inches. It's a 454 cid 330...

    21' Century Coronado, over rev.

    In July I purchased a 21' 1980 Century Coronado, with a 330 Hp 454 cid Mecruiser Inboard. The tach is a little whacky at times in the low range, but i believe it's close enough on the upper end to tell me I'm over reving to easily with the current prop. The transmission is 1:1. Current prop...
