Wiring harness and diagram 1941
Is there such a thing as a complete wiring harness available for a 1941 Runabout? My guess is no. But this is the place to find out... Also a wiring diagram... I am taking more shots of old wiring than I did of my first child... Thanks

Skippers Cap
Ebay ebay Ebay.... Search "Skippers Cap". There are 50.
"Captians Cap" will get you the real deal. "Yaughting hat" Just keep searching. I have seen the true old 40's type there many times. Not the fake stuff. Good luck. Matt

removing deck seam caulk
I need to romove the caulking on the deck seams. It is from around 1975 and is all crackly. I was told to heat it and it would come out but I am nervous about the Varnish. Is there a clean and safe way to do it? Thanks Matt
