    Is that fake door setup just attached to the regular dishwasher door, or is the regular dishwasher door completely removed...at least the front skin section?

    Issues with my Stereo

    Very true Scott. But I think he said it still does it with the engine running...IDK!

    Issues with my Stereo

    Sure sounds like corroded terminals to me. If you have a meter, you can verify that the voltage at the radio is not enough to power it up. And I would trace BOTH the positive AND GROUND to their sources and clean all connections. A connection looking good and actually being good are two entirely...

    Console thickness

    So many unknows for your question. If the boat fiberglass or aluminum? Are you building the center console out of wood, wood covered with fiberglass or aluminum? How wide, tall are you making it? Will you be standing driving it or seated? Post a picture or three so we can see what you are...

    Corrosion Removal and Repainting My 1990 Force 90

    I have a PPG auto-paint store in our area that has all those products I mentioned and used. Most any auto-paint store will have those type paints. If there are any auto-body repair shops in your area, there is an auto-body paint store supplying them with those products. PPG is just one vendor...

    Is the part you are trying to find actually missing or just broken? If you have a broken one, as least you could make repairs or even some else to suffice... Just an Idea...

    1986 20hp port and polished head

    Hit and miss porting and polishing is an iffy game unless you have verified areas to port and polish from other same engines that actually showed real gains. Making things smooth and polished could be for nothing if the gases coming in and leaving are still having to take the same convoluted...

    Corrosion Removal and Repainting My 1990 Force 90

    Zinc chromate is not hard to find. I used that on my marine engine rebuild project and then PPG two part primer, followed up with PPG 2K Acrylic Urethane base coat paint and then PPG 2K Acrylic Urethane clear top coat. And that engine looks like it is covered in glass... There are other ways...

    Medical Alert Systems

    I haven't done any research since my dad has passed away in April. But I thought there were a few smart phone apps that would do the same things? IDK. But such an app would make millions. Since most smart phones have sensors already built into them, it could easily detect falls and most anything...

    Bass Boat Basics

    I have to say, you did some impressive work on your hull. Nice, clean and since it can't rot, it will be there forever. There is absolutely nothing wrong with redesigning a boat to suit your needs and wants. I mean it is your boat after all. Thumbs Up for sure...

    What am I looking at?

    Okay, have you ever thought about buying a TIG welder setup? I see some real issues with so many cracked areas. Can it be fixed/repaired? Of course it can, but it makes me really wonder about the rest of the hull now. If you had the ability to weld aluminum, then you can fix it a lot easier then...

    Motor Guide part MDK03401T

    I looked up that part number and there WAS such a part on Ebay. But they are out of stock presently. You could contact them to see if they are getting more in... Just an Ideas. And there are tons of trolling motor repair shops around to ask them also. Just have to do some calling or emailing to...

    Bass Boat Basics

    Since boats, in general, are usually built basically the same, why not locate a similar type boat and get you measurements and ideas from that boat. I mean aluminum or fiberglass, they all have to work in the exact same fashion and placements. And usually, unless you have a center type console...

    Motor Guide part MDK03401T

    Not sure what you are asking about with your post. Are you looking for that part?

    What am I looking at?

    If that is how it is assembly via the factory, then you could drill out the rivets and clean up the area and buy some rubber material and make a new one. The chances of the factory having parts is extremely remote, but you can try and ask them about it. However, there are some very good rubber...

    What am I looking at?

    I tried to look at the pictures but they I tried to look at the pictures, but for some reason they don't come up for a closer look. All I get is a spinning circle and even waiting for that to work itself out, no picture comes up.

    Query about raising outboard 6" on transom

    WOW, that is a lot of raising. If you don't set it back from the transom, like Scott stated above, you will burn up the engine in short order just raising it 6". But when you set the engine back from the transom (via a jack-plate), the water gets angled into the water ports. Usually the set back...
