My 87 only had problems where the deck was penetrated and not sealed properly or not resealed after some time, and the top skin was pretty thick as well. I would worry more about old through hulls or hardware that goes into the floor or any cored area. Sark

I would not leave it until later as it could continue to migrate further. Since your boat is fairly new is the balsa rotten or just wet? If you can get a fan and point it in the hole to get some circulation and help dry out the area, maybe even a bit of heat. That would be my first action, see...

$3000 :shock: Wow. King marine is about half of that, maybe a bit less. Byrdmans does look like it has great standing headroom all the way back, Although generally I like the more streamlined transition from cabin to canvas, but that is just aesthetics. I think it's hard for local shops to match...

With the raised floor I don't think it will be easy to reach the balsa in the core of the hull, but you probably don't need to. I would worry more about how the raised section of the floor will handle the stress, but I'm guessing it hooks in on the gunnel as well? I would probably contact the...

I recently had a king cavas made and they are a bit pricey, but a good canvas is well worth the investment IMO. And King has the templates and has done alot of CDorys, the install was pretty good, and the canvas itself is very nice quality. Someone also had a camper canvas that didn't use any...

OK so as far as saturday's, I can't make Sat 3/21, as we have a Baseball Jamboree and basically that day is stacked, the following Saturday 3/27 our games are at 9 am so we would be able to make it afterwards if that worked for others. Sark

Oh I'm in either way! Sounds like fun. Kirkland does actually have pretty cruddy docks, so I would think it best to avoid those. I would be up for any location, I haven't actually been to Coulon Park, so that sounds fun to me but Ivars or anywhere will work, it's more the company than the...

Peter, I went with a 6 hp fourstroke tohatsu longshaft, and had the charging adapter added as I'm going to stick with a single battery. Only ran it just over an hour starting the break in period. But so far I like it, right now it's just hanging off the transom, but I think I 'll do a mount of...

Got out friday evening for a short cruise to Kirkland with Jaimie, had a great thai dinner and "camped out" on the 16. Also spent the afternoon on saturday on the hook at St. Edwards park grilling burgers and enjoying the sunshine with Jaimie and the boys. Found a really neat spot that looks...

A couple days before christmas? If that's true along with the fact that they helped write the laws and are now the ones doing the sueing. I would say that speaks of the character of the group or at least the lawyer or firm who stand to make some money. I have no problem with tightening down on...

What is the current price from Angola for the full cover, if you don't mind me asking? Thanks Sark

Peter, Thanks for the tip I'll try another search. The steering is ok and in pretty good shape, if I changed it I would definitly consider hydraulic. But mainly the throttle cable just had to much friction form either being bent or age coupled with them being too long I believe. So for now I'm...

Ok the ones that came in mine were 15 feet long, which I think is part of the problem, It had quite a big loop in the engine well. I think I'll try a bit shorter this time. Sark

Peter- Sounds nice!! I'm going to get out on the lake soon and try for some cutts, I've only fished it a few times but it was prety fun and close to home. My old arima had a 6 hp evinrude 2 stroke on it that was the same, just bombproof and always started/ran great. I'm ordering my kicker today...

Ok so got out and really ran the the new 16 the weekend. Obviously it's louder than my old 22 but I think I have extra vibration coming from somewhere, at idle it's not noticable, but beyond that it's consistent through all the rpm ranges. And to me it sounds louder/more noticable than it should...

Spent two awesome afternoons cruising the north end of Lake Washington and at St. Edwards park anchoring up for lunch. Found a couple of new anchoring spots that I was more confident about poking into with the 16 (shallow), and I am really excited for summer and some lazy days swimming there. On...

I agree, I think everyone should stop fishing up here in the puget sound, it is horrible and there are no fish to be had :wink: . Please spread the word. Sark

Anyone know this off hand? I've decided to replace mine since they are a bit stiff. Thanks Sark

I will echo Marty with another example of Seasport's customer service. When I recently repaired the floor in my new to me 1989 16 angler, I was having trouble locating just a small piece of balsa in the correct size. I definitly didn't need a whole sheet. So after surfing the net to no avail I...

Milky oil in the lower unit I believe is something you want fixed quick. Water is getting in and that can be very bad for your lower unit. With all the gears in there I would make that a priority to get fixed. Sark
