    Starcraft Land Slug

    For as long as I've been loving the outdoors I have swore that I would never get a camper. Never, ever, ever, never, never, ever, ever buy a camper! So last week I took the family for just a one nighter up to East Tawas Point on Lake Huron, we tented it. We met up with some friends of ours...

    Forum Subscriptions?

    Howdy Gents! I feel like a real dope but I can't figure this out. See, a while back I "unsubscribed" from everything for a few weeks. Then I came back and started "subscribing" to the stuff I like to keep up with. The regular Thread subscriptions are shooting me emails when they are updated...

    1975 14' Mirro Craft Utility Rebuild

    AOK, so, I was technically working on this boat yesterday so I thought I'd go ahead and get a rebuild thread running on it. This boat came to be when I missed my deadline on finishing the Sea Nymph for our family vacation to the U.P. last summer. I was one sad fella hanging out on the lake for...

    Advice needed - water in lower unit

    1984 Evinrude V4 90 So a couple weeks back ran the engine some, changed out the LU gear oil. Water in the oil, shoot. So, pulled the boat over to the local "certified" Evinrude Marine Tech. I wanted to try the job myself but decided that I really ought to work on other stuff instead. I hate...

    Droid phone and Photobucket?

    Hey guys, I know this isn't an iboats site issue necessarily. It seems to be a photobucket on droid phone issue. So when photobucket "upgraded":facepalm: a little while back, my EVO phone stopped showing photobucket hosted photos. It just gives me that little blue box with the question mark...

    VHF and Antenna Recommendations?

    Powered by iboats!

    This is post number 10K for me and I wanted to take just a second to shoot out a BIG THANKS. A few years back I was looking hard for a boat but couldn't find a thing even close to my budget. So, I bumped my way through the world wide interweb and found my way here. That's when I found out...

    So what's the scam here?

    This site has scam written all over it, but what's the scam? The site is CameraGPS .info I'm hunting for new electronics and the FF/GPS Combo units they show are like 1/3 the price. Is it referb, knock off or fake, no accessories? Or... Legit, super deal? (ya right)

    Chris Craft Project - well I dunno, maybe?

    So this caught my eye the other day... The owner inherited it and doesn't really know anything about it. Says it's a CC Sea Skiff. Trailer looks pretty good. No engine. Total rebuild, huge project obviously. My minds eye shows me she could be beautiful again:) He says $500 takes it...

    Kill Switch Install Quick Question...

    Howdy fellas, hopefully this is an easy one... I picked up a "Universal" kill switch with the M and C posts. As I understand it I am to run from the magneto (black with yellow) at the ignition to the M post on my new kill switch. Then run from the other M post to a ground at my fuse box...

    Best spot for a Temp Sender?

    Hey Fellas! So the UPS guy just dropped off my new Temp Sending Unit with the "Z" bracket (contact type). I'm wondering where the best spot would be to install? I have this empty threaded bolt hole at the top of the block that would work... Should I put it there? Or, should I use one of...

    Help trouble shooting a starter?

    1984 Evinrude 90HP So a while back I got my new to me engine running (you can see it there in my signature). Since then I swapped out the manual Tilt for power T&T, installed a new water pump, cleaned it up, painted it, and made all the connections just like they were before (well I think I...

    Temp gauge compatability?

    Quick and easy (I think). So I bought this Temp Gauge for use on my Mercruiser V6 IO. I'm thinking I may actually want to use it for my 84 Evinrude 90 hp OB instead? I know normally Temp Gauges with the H/C are used with OB's and Temp Gauges with the actual temp readings for IO's. But, can...

    Gears Grinding?

    OK, so I spun my shaft and here's what I'm hearing... I spun it some then at 10 sec I actually grab the shaft and lift it up while I am spinning it (quiet), let let it down while spinning it again. Are my gears grinding? Normal? Not normal? Wassup? Thanks in advance fellas! (1984...

    Found this in my water pump housing...

    Compatibility of controls?

    Hey fellas, I've been looking for a good set of controls for my 1984 Evinrude 90 and came across these: http://www.ebay.com/itm/200775357594?ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1952.l2649 I realize the ad says "OMC Stringer, Cobra" but will they also work for my Evinrude? Any of you guys...

    Expanding (pour in) Flotation Foam and Aluminum Boats

    I originally posted these videos in my Sea Nymph Rebuild thread. I thought it would be good to post them in the general section for everybody to check out and hopefully make an informed decision about flotation for their aluminum boat. Pour in foam in aluminum boats...
