twin 200 hpdi's not many hrs yet (can't get time off) but they run great!!

mtbe, was an oxy for fuel, alcohol uses almost no oxygen to burn itself unlike gasoline which uses tons of oxygen. my understanding is ...in a given volume of fuel/air mixture the 10% ethanol actually allows more oxygen for the octane burn, hence "they" call it a oxygenator for gas. ethanol has...

get s/s thru's for the hole boat and replace the hoses with them. then that part will rest your mind when these unanounced nor' easters crop up. i'm across the pond from you in lewes. my sail has the bracket and two new 200 hpdi's it's a great boat. just call wilson on 71 when your out maybe...

i can't stand it anymore, ALCOHOL has NO octane rating. it has no octane at all, it doesn't have heptane, iso butane, or iso hexane..hell it doesn't even have benzene in it. you could add water to your tank till it splits and decant of the water/alcohol (near tropic) mixture and have exactly...

i have a 252g sailfish with new 200 hpdi's. it is a rocket sled.fuel injection can but a boat out of the water faster than carbs of the same horse power. 300 vs. 400hp probably isn't that much difference. hole shots for sure but most traveling speed is in the middle range anyway. a smaller motor...

just fixed mine today!!! the thru hull fitting was broken when repowered and when it was fixed they never purged it. after three purgings i finally have the steering tight. i found out how to do it with one person. hook up to the helm with the bottle (like a IV) cut a small hole in the top of...

i bought my radar on sale last fall for $975, right now a full tank will cost $800. i will get alot of trailer time this season.

no he's right..there would be a carbon tax or something as an excuse to charge money for something that the gov. doesn't do anything for. i work at a refinery, and all we do is add the alcohol to 10% by weight of each truck. what a great time for the states to line their pockets with yet another...

torsion is the only way to go, how much to tow your boat out of somebody's yard when it flips off the trailer from a broken rusty spring.

dig it out, all of it. then replace with new wood or a coosa (plastic) trans. make sure your holes are seal with epoxy before hardware goes in or you'll be doing it again.

i flush mounted, took off the doors and covered with polyurethaned wood. looks great!! going to do the same with the gauge panel and mount weather proof switchs. it's a cross between the traditional bright finished wood and modern flush mounting.

if the hull (trans and stringers) as well as the motors are good, then it's a go. my sail fish scuppers are out of the water, even on the highway!! that boat your looking at is meant to be trailered. every boat, every model has scuppers that are under the water with wave action at sea. only at...

alcohol is very hydroscopic (water and alcohol are best friends) and will apbsorb water thru the vent everyday with expansion and contraction of the fuel in the tank. it will absorb enough water to the point of phase seperation, then the water/alcohol mixture will settle to the bottom, just like...

repowered my 25 sail with 2-200 hpdi's from 200 johnny's, lot less fuel...absolute rocket boosters!!!! a underpowered boat will always be a dissapointment. i could haul concrete with that boat!!

wood encapsulated in epoxy resin and cloth will enjoy a very long life. when the tops of the bulkheads are not glassed and sealed under the floor the end of the plywood acts like a sponge. when the factory drills the drain hole and smears calking in the hole with a finger.....when the tow eyes...

89 bracket sailfish, lift kept inside, 500hrs on the boat bought two yrs. ago. had a wet transom, water squirted out when i drilled a cable tie hole!!! stringers if you want to call them that(2x3) where okay but the tanks and hoses where shot. don't get me wrong i still love the boat, fixed all...
