sim: With a clean bottom, not overloaded, yes. I think my props are 17 - 18 with cup. I can't swear to that though. Trans are 1.52 velvet drives. 1 3/8 shaft. I also can't remember if I am reaching all the way up to 4400 or not. I'm reinstalling my port engine today. I burned a hole in a piston tryi...

I run my 330hp 440 Chryslers in my B31 at 2800-2900RPM and they will last forever (or until something other than wear gets them.) 21 knots. Have someone look down the carbs and run them just off the secondaries. What blocks are they?

Rawleigh

In water after a couple of days of settling in!!

Rawleigh

Thanks Mike! I sent you an email as well. I will get back with you about picking it up after ther 4th. I need to pick up a flybridge windshield from Doug on the same trip, so I need to coordinate with both of you.

Rawleigh

Doug: I was just thinking the same thing! I will coordinate with both of you. It will be after July 4 though. Rawleigh

Rawleigh

Timmy, I did enjoy Panama City . . .

Rawleigh

Mikey: It seem that Tony's are the way to go, but if not try http://www.depcopump.com/

Rawleigh

I want it!! I will make the donation once Pat is back in t own and notify you it is made. Now I just have to figure out when to come get it! Thanks Mike!!

Rawleigh

I want to know how many beers he had before making that decision!!!

Rawleigh

Chris Pague had a brush with one up here. I think i will give them a wide berth! How are the Steyrs doing? What kind of numbers are you seeing now that you have some time on them?

Rawleigh

Got mine, thanks!!

Rawleigh

It looks good to me! I like the rodholders!

Rawleigh

Maui Jim Typhoons, definately! I've had mine for 7 years. I broke the temples skiing and they replaced the entire glasses for $8.50!! Clearest glasses I've ever worn, and comfortable. I wear contacts and these give complete coverage from wind.

Rawleigh

SWEET!!! Congratulations to both of you!!!

Rawleigh

Breasts are good!!!

Rawleigh

Scot: Six years out and it still looks great. Granted it doesn't get the hardest use. I think it depends on how lean the paint mix is compared to the grit. I've seen what you are talking about, but mine looks good. When the paint guy was cleaning up he scraped some 4200 off with his knife blade! I a...

Rawleigh

Tell him to kick some Venezulan butt!! Good job!!

Rawleigh

Ernest, you finally found something I probably could win!!!

Rawleigh

Scot: I made my decks out of fir marine plywood coated on all 6 sides with epoxy and with glass cloth on the deck side. I painted it with Awlgrip nonskid (which I love!). Its not a light, but it was cheaper. I made a template for the hatches out of masonite and used a router with a spiral carbide bi...

Rawleigh

I'm really going to miss seeing all of you guys this year. Have a great trip!

Rawleigh

Mikey: I think I have my original ones if you want them.

Rawleigh

Great!! Thanks.

Rawleigh

When do you head for Panama Vic?

Rawleigh

Get a machinist to reproduce it in aluminum.

Rawleigh

Alex: Capt. Pat offers these. B31 style. http://www.bertram31.com/parts/tiller_arm.jpg I've also bought the spherical ball joint ends like you have from this company. They offer SS corrosive environment versions as well. The standard 22mm joint I bought from them a couple of years ago cost @$22.00+/...

Rawleigh

Can you say "Dumba@#"! I wonder if his wife was pissed at him . . .

Rawleigh

Appollo's marine valves are SS ball and RPTFE seals, same as therir fuel valves.

Rawleigh

I just squirell them away when I see them Scot! God help me if my computer harddrive ever dies!

Rawleigh

Ken: Check out this company's offerings:

Rawleigh

Matt: Also try McMaster Carr for fasteners:

Rawleigh

Vince: I have always had good luck with appollo ball valves from Conbraco. West sells them. What do you think of them Bruce?

Rawleigh

I sure wish I was going back with you guys, but it wasn't to be!! Maybe its a good thing as the machine shop should be done with my engine Friday. I need to have it in and running by the 4th!! Good luck and "Bon voyagee", as Buggs would say!!

Rawleigh

I think you were working on those when I stopped by your shop a couple of years ago. They did look complicated, but beautifully crafted.

Rawleigh

Natural selection, except for the little kids!

Rawleigh

I knew someone who had one back in the early '80's. The interior layout with the front queen bed and the large salon with galley was one of the better ones I have seen in that size boat. It was a beautiful boat. I don't know any particulars other than the fact that they kept it for a number of years...

Rawleigh

I had good luck with the Petit 6627 Tie coat primer clorinated rubber primer (alternatively Interlux Primcon) over Interlux Vinyl-lux primewash two part epoxy primer. Follow the instructions carefully as to recoat times. I then put two coats of Petit Ultima SR ablative bottom paint over it. After tw...

You may want to get a radiator pressure tester so you can analyse it with the engines off.

I don't suppose they are for the Morse size holes are they Mikey? I wish they had had the small ones years ago when the original morses were put in, but i don't think they even knew what "Halogen" was back then!!

Rawleigh

Also think what would have happened to them if they had been on a Blubliner, etc.!!

Rawleigh

I have the plastic ones covered with plastic lenses. Barnegetts (sp?). I think the now make them smaller with 55 watt halogens. You can get the smaller ones in stainless. Unfortunately they don't make stainless adapter plates to allow the smaller ones to be used after the larger ones have been insta...

Rawleigh

UV: That is what I use too. Learned about it when I worked in a boatyard for a couple of summers back in the 70's!! Damn, I must be getting old!

Rawleigh

If properly fastened and backed, your cleat arrangement should be better than the bow chock according to the Boat Useless studies of the hurricane damage. Less stretching and chafing.

Rawleigh

Amazing!!

Rawleigh

That's a whopper alright! I bet it seems a lot bigger when you are his size!!

Rawleigh

That's natural selection at work Scot! I bet they won't ride it again!!!

Rawleigh

I know nothing about them but thought one of you might be interested.

Rawleigh

Dug: Maybe you are running it too hard with the new power . . .!!

Rawleigh

UV: I've got a roll for you if you want it.

Rawleigh

Damn, what a rolling pig! Good thing Thudd wasn't on it! Barf-o-rama!! I might even hurl if locked in the bowels of that thing!! The only place I'd be on that is on deck with a lifejacket on!

Rawleigh

Thanks Mikey!! I'm getting slack in my old age!
