Re: Smell Gas But Cant Find The Source

Thanks everyone, I think it is going to be a combo of the gas not sully burring and the tank and hoses needing to be replaced. I am going to have a pro look at it this week. Thanks

Re: Smell Gas But Cant Find The Source

Thanks guys,
I have checked all the hoses and they seem ok. If they are bad I would see gas coming out right? I may have to hire some one.

20ft Boat Hauling from RI to FL

Hey, any suggestions on the cheapest way to bring a boat on a trailer from RI to FL. I seems that if I do it my self or pay someone it will be about 2,000. It costs that much from me to do it...

Re: Couple of questions

Thanks, I guess I will glass it or give it away. I was shooting for 350 pounds of boat, not including the engine weight because that's what my 25 hp specs says it can get on a plane.

Re: Couple of questions

I can get some pictures in the morning. So what you are saying is glassing in the stringers is the only way? I'm just not sure I am up to that challenge. I have never done this before and have...

Re: Couple of questions

Sorry, I didn't mention that it's just the fiberglass skin. Everything else has been gutted. Any ideas?

Couple of questions

Background:
I was given a 15 ft fiberglass for a skiff style boat, whaler style. I would like to use a 25 go to push it, so I need to keep it light. I will only be using it for a few month so I...

Re: What to do with a old hard bottom inflatable?

Thanks, I have used the proper glue and that part is holding. The problem is the seams came apart to the point that i could stick my head into them. I glued them bat together and patched but it...

Re: what do you think?

That's great, I had no idea it would go that fast, thanks. My parents Grady white, with a 150hp on it, only goes 32 mph on a glassy calm day. I wasn't looking at larger hulls because I thought the...

what do you think?

I have have been looking to buy a cheap small hull to use with my 25 hp tiller motor. So far I have been looking at skiffs in the 13 to 15 ft range but today I came across the option of a 17 ft mako...

1979 Endeavour 43 YAY or NAH

We live in Key Largo and love the look and space of this boat. It’s a big step up for us, size wise, and are concerned it will be too big of a hassle sailing around the keys and Bahamas. Anyone...

Re: Ferro Cement Hulls ?

Thanks, good points about the larger boat being more expensive. I will defiantly need to get it surveyed if I plan to buy it and crunch the numbers. There are a few online for sale in Florida. If...

Hey Cruisers,

Re: Ferro Cement Hulls ?

I came across a 56ft Samson ketch for very little money. I think this is the boat for me as I value space on the boat and can only afford a 30 to 35 ft of other makes. I am planning on sailing it...

Re: Any input is appreciated

Thanks for the responses. Those boats sound great but a little high for me. I have found a few with similar descriptions in the 10k range but they haven’t been in my area so I haven’t seen them. I...
