Sent you a PM update
The two guys that had info on the molds are out of town for a few week. I'll hit them up when they get back.
I'll PM you with any contact info I come across. Make sure your email info is current...
What mold are you looking for? I heard they are in Ventura and possibly looking for a new home.
The first set went back in the boat that day and I've got a coupe trips on them already. She is running great, hard to believe the motor is over 40 years old.
I added up the cost of the parts and...
I fine tuned the setup today. I replaced the leaky original pump with my enerpac porta power pump and added a 0-4000 psi glycerin filled gauge for better accuracy. It's a lot easier to use now that...
With a little over 2200 hours on this set of injectors and a good amount of light smoke on startup, it was time to rebuild the injectors. Normally I would pull them, drop them off at the local diesel...
Search Cole Hersee solenoid. If you're looking for local pick up, try Napa. I've seen the in 85 amp and 200 amp rating with the price running $15 on up.

I snapped a couple picture of the FIREEscape upper helm station that Dan Built.

If you're in the San Diego area, try Danfab at 619 477-1145. Dan is my brother in law and does amazing work. He built the one on FireEscape. Dan runs a one man shop, so getting on his schedule can be...
I'm really happy with the rods and don't think I would change a thing. My buddy took my component list and build a rod on the 6455xh blank. The only difference between the rods is the butts. He...
Thanks for doing the leg work on the project. I sure you're not the only one that could use some fresh gauges and panels.

What are the dimensions of your vents? They look longer than the stainless vents that were being used on the early 80s boats.
Have you looked at the Attwood vents at West Marine? SKU:ATT-1488-5 They look to be very close to the vents on my 1981. Are the vents on your boat plastic plastic? I saw them in plastic on ebay

Very few come on the market. Most of the guys in an outer banks aren’t looking to move on to another boat. Be patient and one will come your way.
I went with the red thinking it would be easier on the eye if the dimmer didn’t work on the LEDs
Nice to see things coming together down in IB. I going to try and get down there on Tuesday.
If you're still running one of the older engines, you probably have gauge light issues like I did. The little Volvo bulbs(#19923) and sockets(#808175) are getting hard to find at a reasonable price....
That was your warm up for a big swordfish that get the upper hand during the battle.
I hooked a hammerhead like that a few years ago. Waisted most of the afternoon on that fish.
I would have thought a 1 ton van would have a higher towing capacity. Maybe the brakes on the vans aren't the same as the trucks. Towing is the easy part, getting it stopped in a hurry is what really...
Welcome Joe
My boat weighed #8120 with a half tank of fuel, sitting on a light duty roller trailer. I was in the process of building a new trailer and weighed it so I would know how much axle to...
Things opened back up on May 1st. South Shores is the only one open in mission bay. Only 1/3 on the parking lot is open so that limits the amount of boats that can launch.
Everything but the...
The threshers are catching a break with everyone stuck in the beach this year. Is there a commercial value for Thresher or were you guys fishing for fun?
Using a boat with a motor is in phase 2, but there hasn’t been a date set for that. If they don’t open the parking lots, the ramp is useless
Warranty? I think that ran out back in the mid 80's.
