Re: Wiring for 76 Capri
I, too, have an Arrowglass Capri. As far as know, Arrowglass built these boats to order and there are no 2 that are exactly alike. In fact, the Capri was one of the last models produced before Arrowglass Memphis was moved and sold to Day Marine in '78 so later Capri models would be even more different than yours and mine.<br /><br />I'm assuming you have a MerCruiser setup since you mention hydraulics. The OMC's at this time were using a gear-drive lift mechanism. Any MerCruiser shop manual would help out more than anything since, like most boat manufacturers, AG purchased and installed the engine/outdrive as a drop-in package. I'd help you out by looking at mine, but I have the OMC setup (much to my dismay; the MerCruiser is far superior) and my wiring will be totally different.<br /><br />There is a Arrowglass web forum run by James, a former employee of the Memphis factory. You can find it
here. <br /><br />There is an interesting thread about the Capri that details how it came about. The hull was originally a Sea Ray that was brought into the factory late at night, stripped down and made into a mold... then POOF! a new hull design for Arrowglass! They threw a deck on it and had a new model boat.<br /><br />If you have any other questions, I'd be happy to field them for you.
