    1971 17' Bell Boy Runabout

    Is my trailer too short for the boat? I'd say the tongue weight is probably 120-150 lbs, maybe more... Totally guessing. The transom is also about a foot off the back of the frame.

    Which Random Orbital Sander

    I will be ordering that tonight BWR. Thanks for sharing! FM was still out of stock and the CLR didn't knock the calcium buildup down much. I decided to go with the DeWalt (DWE6423K) since it has the 3 year guarantee and more amps. I'll try to hit the boat this spring and if it burns out I'll be...

    Which Random Orbital Sander

    I am planning on picking one up to sand the soap scum off the shower door panels with maybe 2000 grit. I will use it afterward to smooth my boat's gelcoat before buffing. First of all, any thoughts against the shower panels? Second, I have narrowed it down to two orbitals based on customer...

    1971 17' Bell Boy Runabout

    After failing to repair some electrical on my current motor, I decided to pick up a new (used) motor. I currently have a 1986 mercury 60hp on the back and the new motor is a 1975 50hp Evinrude. If the bolt pattern doesn't line up, is there any reason I can't bolt a c channel onto the transom and...

    Dream Boat

    Can someone please tell me I'm nutts for thinking this boat is the cats meow? Granted, it's not a tinny so I know I'm losing half my audience right now, but just look at her! If I put a pod on it I'd have the deck, the cabin, and a place to sleep! The vertical cabin walls are saweet...

    I successfully located the issue with my nutri bullet's malfunction. Poorly designed switch anchors. $2 at the hardware store should have her up and running again.

    Stator Rewrap

    Behold my hideous creation. Tonight I'll put the epoxy base into the forms. With any luck, I'll be spinning them up tomorrow morning. Good thoughts again guys. Upon further inspection I've concluded the highspeed coil is very close if not 42 AWG. The low speed looks to be slightly smaller...

    Need Your Motor Specs on your Outboard

    Hey guys, I am in need of a general motor spec relating to my ongoing rebuild. I need to know what your red or blue ignition coil coming off your stator puts out while cranking. I have .8 volts coming out and it seems low. Thanks in advance to anyone who can help me out.

    Stator Rewrap

    No spark at the plugs. I'm producing 3 volts from the LS coil while it's cranking. I have a suspicion that the battery was undercharged so it's on the trickle charger now. I have 15 ohms of resistance between the ground and red wire (ls) and 59 between ground and blue (hs). Also, I...

    Stator Rewrap

    Well, I found out one of my wraps was extending too far and had to remove it. I think I have a process down that will work now. The cardboard cap was not only pulling the wire with t when I removed it, the paint was also keeping the epoxy from bonding it to the post while I worked.... as...

    Stator Rewrap

    Notice the fishing line holding everything up tight to the stator body. Now to wait for the low speed and high speed rappings :-)

    Help pricing grandpas boat

    My wife's grandpa is starting to get dimenesia, which mixed with his friends moving away has left him with a boat he's not comfortable taking out anymore. He's planning on selling it out of Pendleton Oregon and was hopeful for $4,900... I'm skeptical but didn't have the heart to say so. It's a...

    Stator Rewrap

    I forgot the proof! So I'm recycling this product packaging. Hopefully it doesn't create a weak point in the project. I am taping both sides of the plastic in hopes the epoxy will bond to everything. Feedback appreciated.
