Oh ok. No, I have the factory light and I thought the lenses were cracked and needed a new light. I just opened it up though and found that the lenses were not cracked. I just realigned them and fixed it in a bout 5 mins. lol Thanks for your help though!

Is it an extra light you have? I have the light however it's justt cracked and need a new one. Thank you for your help

It sounds like we have the almost identical boat. Do you have any pictures of yours?

My bow light on my '86 197 Monaco has seen better days however it's not the standard bow light. It looks different than anyone I can find and nothing else looks like it will fit in the space given. Where do I find the factory style Sea Ray bow light? Thanks

Always good to see another Texan! Also you may want to consider buying a MerCruiser manual as well as it may have more detailed information pertaining to somethings. I think it's best to have both manuals. Good luck!

WOW! $3500?? Thats a steal!! Looks real nice!! I'll be looking for it on Lake Travis

I've always launched at that dead end road next to Volente beach. We had a family friend that had a place ajacent to VIP Marina with a dock so we would keep the boat there. BTW I think South Austin Marine is on Hwy 71 going towards Oak Hill after you pass I 35

Nice! I justed looked at the weather channel and saw that! I might just have to hit up the pond they call Lake Bastrop lol. I can't wait to get out on Lake Tarvis again! What part of the lake do yall hang out on?

OldSkool, to most it seems that way but to us Texas folk (or me anyways) anything under 60 is cold as hell! :) 92Coupe, thats about what it looked like here. What part of Austin are you in?

So I've decided that snow is cool maybe once or twice a year. Mainly because I walk outside and see this on my boat! Now I know this may not look like a lot to some but for central Texas its a blizzard! lol Dallas got it even worse and I think they're still getting hit. BTW cleaning...

Forgive my ignorance, but what is a lift muffler? I googled it and it appears to be a muffler used on boats with exhaust below the water line. Is this correct?

I know this thread is old, but I couldn't let this go. Junny, you better be thankful that people are still helping you on this thread after the way you talked to and insulted Firerooster. You asked a question and he gave you an answer. If you decide to go too much faster I hope you...

Yep, absolutley crazy! How big is Lake Belton? I've always wanted to go but have never been. The Fiancee and myself have been wanting to take a trip this summer with the boat and Belton isn't far from here (a couple hours I believe). Are there any places with little cabins to rent or...

yeah a pic would be great. Thanks. Also, do you have a thread with pictures of your boat? I'd love to see it. Thanks again

The lenses on my bowlight are broken out and the entire fixture just needs to be replaced on my Monaco 197. Looking at the light it doesn't look like the standard bow light I've seen. I checked a lot of places such as Iboats and Academy and could not find one. Can someone point me in the...

Yeah, I saw where he ssaid it went 45 with 10 people. First off, thats not very likley and also very unsafe.

The stringers are the "support beams" that run the length of the boat and give it it's strength. You don't want to have one thats comprimised by rot while running down the lake because it will comprimise the strength of the hull. As far as samples, I've never done it, but I believe you just...

Nice looking boat! Is that an I-6 in there? Do you have any pics of the swim platform? Keep up the good work!

Nice pics tleeah! I live near Bastrop (Austin), and it was perfect weather today, but unfortunatley I couldn't take the boat out. It's supposed to get real cold here Tuesday with low in the 20's and highs in the 40's...yeah, it's cold for us Texas folks!! It ain't supposed to drop below 70! lol

Thanks for the info! I do indeed have a Monaco. Also, how did you save the teak? What did you use and what steps did you take? Mine is in rough shape. Thanks!
