    85 26ft Sundancer Outboard conversion??????????

    I did this to a John Allmand 23' Hard Top, I used a Armstrong Bracket and a single 250hp outboard. Worked out GREAT! I loved that boat, I did most of the work myself, so the cost was that much of an issue. Infact the only issue was that my trailer was a little to short for the new set-up. I say...

    268DA TV Installation

    Here's what I came up with: I mounted my 19" LCD/DVD combo on the small divider between the forward berth and galley dinette wall with a adjustable mount so that I can view it from both direction. It's very solid and very close to the factory power outlet, so no need to install additional wiring!

    What's this hose called & where can I get it?

    Needing some help, I have a 87' DA with a 454 Big Block, trying to figure out what this hose is called and where it can be purchased? There is a small leak in it so I'd like to replace it. I figured it should be fairly easy to replace, of course it is a boat so I'm sure the cost will be more...

    Hey gasamp you've just described the exact problem I'm having on my 87' 268 DA w/a 454 mercruiser. It make me nervous that it gets that hot. Also how quick does yours climb?
