Thanks guys.

Looking for sources and recommendation on installing new Vernier style Throttle cable on my 1959. Anyone upgrade their system to a morse style rod cable? I need throttle linkage kit to Carb and new cable. I am looking for recommendations. thanks

Dry weight I'd guess the weight at 2400-2500 lbs without the interior and adding the 327 & fiberglass. Find a good marine surveyor and have it gone through. Once you know where the hidden problems lie you'll know where to start. If no major problems are found you maybe able to go for a boat ride bef...

Plenty of good guys down at Table Rock and heartland chapter. Give them a shout. what year is it?

Welcome aboard!!

I would assume 800 lbs for motor & trans, and 1800 lbs for the hull

I second the CP bronze question, and wonder how many are using CP Stainless or other for the CP trim.

Thanks Jim

Does anyone know how the battery box access in from of engine was trimed out on the floor?? Current access is behind front seat center floor but was the access trimed in stainless or chrome strips?

In the 50-60's we would have said Caulk it, in the 60-early 70's we would have said fiberglass, then we moved to the West system thru early 80's and now 5200 is the answer. In 20 years they will be laughing at the 5200 bottoms because we should be using the next space age technology. Each boat, cond...
