    Sears Boat Year

    @dmcm13 - Please do no post in topics over 90 days old unless you're the original poster. I've started a new topic for you. Might need to put up a few pictures, but we may not be able to even guess at it. SNs don't generally mean much, and lack of a true HIN means the boat was made before...

    Buying Used Boat

    Yup: condition is king. Current boat is an '02. Previous boat was a '72. Both are in good condition. I'd still trust the '72 (a buddy has it).

    Building A Hardtop

    This is similar: https://forums.iboats.com/threads/1977-orrion-becoming-an-ocean-animal.579140/ Was done quite a while ago. Not sure I'd do it, but it was interesting anyway.

    A Little Drawin'

    Bored to death waiting for some renderings ... digital version of watching paint dry, so was doodling outboards and came up with this:

    Engine hours.

    Welcome aboard. There may not be any way to tell. If there's no meter on the dash, there probably isn't a record. I'm assuming you bought the boat used and don't know how much it was used before you got it?

    Problems with forum this morning

    Been trying to figure that out too. I think I'm seeing that too. @scott.cooper @colonel_sanders

    Has anyone seen one of these before

    Chris Craft soaked up a few different manufacturers over the years in the 50s, 60s and even into the 70s if I've got things right. Not sure how rare it is in the sense of value (boats don't tend to work that way). But, it would be a looker the lake for sure. Welcome aboard.

    My first boat (project)

    What you're seeing in JB's post is a listing of boats manufactured by Whitehouse by year with some specs. There's not going to be a manual for your boat. You're going to have to work based on what information you can get here on the forums and photographs you can find (if any).

    Just thought I'd share a nice photo.

    Snow!?! Holy poo ... I was in shorts and a t-shirt today.

    My first boat (project)

    That's a little fiberglass runabout, correct? The answer to the question is probably not. If it's a larger boat than I'm thinking it is, then there might be something from the yacht maker, but if it's the trailer boat I think it is - then the chances are slim and closer to none. You can find...

    Boating Club

    ^^^ I would agree. Start by making a Facebook Group or something to pass details and meets back and forth, and then hang out on the water together. Later on, if it turns into something you want to make an organization out of - then start thinkin' about it.

    It's not you HotTommy, there's something wrong with that forum.

    Need a search link

    Hey AD - when you go to the forum home page, click <<NEW POSTS>> in the upper left. It will show you all of the posts since your last visit. I haven't figured out how just to find new topics (apart from new posts in old topics).

    First time boat owner

    Welcome aboard. The "wander" you're experience when steering: if it's at low speed, then it's probably pretty normal. I/Os tend to do that. If it's happening on plane, then of course that's different. You're also into a electric shift OMC Stringer with through hull push/pull steering. You...
