    You can never proof, only resist. Are you going to use fiberglass?

    1957 seaswirl restoration

    You are glad you had the demo mostly all done. Now you can build up how you want. I'll follow thread but I'm not a fiberglass guy. Lots of them here and I'm sure they will join in.

    I didn't want to restore this 1997 Islander this summer

    That may pull the boat too far forward. I put transom right at the end of the bunks.

    Yes it is. Line from the winch to the eye should be level or maybe an inch higher to allow the hook to clear

    1991 Playcraft pontoon restoration

    For just getting started on the whole thing i would disconnect at motor and pull back up to helm and remove helm all at once, which you will be doing anyway. Work on the steering as you can.

    helm wiring, should be simple, i'm not too bright.

    Fun little story. Prepping to put the last section of flooring in. Triple checked all plumbing / fuel clamps, steering cable up out of the way, etc. Thought I'd check all the helm buttons one last time and nothing worked. CHECKED THREE TIMES!!! The next 45 seconds of pure terror...

    Correct. I think I've tried in the past with just an egg turner, this time I used my bench scraper. Thought about using my 6inch taping knife.

    Been seeing these Japanese egg logs on the internet and thought I'd try it. Actually super easy. Mine used havarti. I'm exited to try it more. Local smoked bacon (best you ever had) and toast

    Throttle Only Button

    If you're talking about the button to push when you want to throttle up to start, my 82 mercury is mechanical i believe other than the neutral safety switch. I took mine out during my rehab and while I didn't look specifically seemed like all the guts were levers, pins and such. Could you...

    Fish finders

    No muskies around here but one of the reasons i chose not to install a fish finder is to me a day of fishing and catching a couple fish over 20 is totally fine. Trolling for salmon or lake trout whe. I was a kid and not catching anything was fine. Bonus if I did. Time spent with dad...

    UUUUGGGHHH

    I can handle hot, less so as I get older but 85 plus humidity, no wind and bright sun. When I worked in AZ for a few years I was good until about 115. Dry heat and all. Humidity is a deal killer
