    Remove F225 Outboards with Cherry Picker

    Wool shoe polish daubers are good for that...

    Replacement cockpit bolsters on 33 Express

    I never noticed it, but I don’t see Signatures on my mobile devices, even though it is turned on in settings. I usually turn them off by choice, because it is so repetitive. I do see the profiles at the top of the posts.

    Remove F225 Outboards with Cherry Picker

    Glad it worked out for you, but it wasn’t what I was expecting to see. I think of a cherry picker as something with a bucket.

    Replacement cockpit bolsters on 33 Express

    As with any request, putting your location in your profile would greatly help.

    Rocket Launcher with Sunshade

    Yes, but after market modification by an upholstery shop would require disassembly, possibly void the warranty, and add hundreds of dollars to a fairly simple factory modification.

    Rocket Launcher with Sunshade

    Eventually, Sure Shade will get smart, and install a U-shaped zipper underneath the rocket launcher position, so that you can unzip the flap, and I have about a foot wide opening to reach up and take down, or replace a rod.

    Need help removing a Rule 500GPH aerator from my 2000 232 Gulfstream

    Buy the Rule with the extra port, so that you can run an extra line off of it if you want to. Two lines off of one through hull.

    Grady side panel covers

    What do you mean by recover? They were not covered to begin with, just molded plastic I think in your case, they are a candidate for a good prep and paint.

    welding hardtop support

    It can be a real problem on autos, maybe not so much on fiberglass boats, but I would disconnect everything from the batteries, and all plugs from electronics. You never know where a ground may end up.

    2003 Grady 232 Gulfstream

    Sounds like fuel economy would be pretty bad, if those high cruise rpm's are necessary.

    Replace Jabsco Electric Conversion?

    "......a shitty (pun intended) design", is okay, butt, I wouldn't have followed with, "easier pill to swallow."

    Adding an Additional (emergency) Bilge Pump in the Stern - 2006 Marlin

    If you are looking at Rule 2000, that's 1 1/8 discharge hose, not 1 1/2, which will be a lot more flexible, and easier to route. Look at where your 1 1/2 gen hose crosses your 1 1/8 bilge hose. The gen hose is closer to the camera, but still...

    258 Livewell drain hose replacement

    If you do go that route, here’s an idea, since you can’t reach both sides of the connection at once. When you get ready to install the new one, run a line down through the opening and through the new bottom fixture, and the hose, and tie a big knot. Pull it up snug to the bottom of the hole...
