The decals look good. Now to finish the job, rub your rub-rails with a rag with acetone on it (wear nitrile gloves). Then apply some 303 or other rubber protectant and you'll really be looking good.

Any idea of the model and year?

I have a 2002 Islander. They are really a nice all-around versatile boat. No one makes anything like it anymore. Good luck finding another trailer-able walkaround with a cabin and a head. Everything now is dual console and center console.

You have done a great job detailing your boat. That gelcoat looks excellent. I have an older Islander and found some of the older pendant decals on Ebay and applied them this spring. My original decals were shot and were really bringing the boat down.

Nothing remains of the OMC legacy

I just changed mine a few weeks ago. You now have to remove that cap, then there will be a rubber grommet under the cap, and the anode is under the internal grommet. As Ky Grady said above, I would get a flat head screw driver and a small ball peen hammer, and start lightly tapping the cap...

The only downside is when you receive a call from your wife at work, after she has checked the credit card statement, and she is very concerned because she thinks that you are buying women's stockings for another women

I went with the socks option.

Are both trim tabs completely retracted? Is one of your motors counter rotating?

I took a better look at this issue yesterday. There are two round access ports above the pump. However, the outboard really gets in the way. You can reach down one port at a time and reach the pump, but you cannot see what you are doing. I cannot see how the pump is attached to the boat. I...

The live well is not near the aft bilge

I was going through my final check out before launching my 2002 Islander and discovered that the hose connection on my aft bilge pump has broken off. Therefore, I need to replace the pump. Access to the pump location looks very difficult. I'm looking for tips to access and replace this pump...

If they are the same as the 2002 Islander, you can use Anco 5218 wipers

A bad coil or corroded coil connections?

Hey SkunkBoat, what were your numbers with your old motors and what props were you using?

Maybe I missed a post discussing this above, but are you sure that you didn't get some bad gasoline?

Isn't there a way to test the O2 sensor by heating it and checking the change in resistance?

Does this balsa provide any structural integrity of was it just there as form-work during construction? Sorry, if this is a stupid question. I'm a civil engineer and not a boat builder, but when constructing buildings and bridges, components are sometimes used and needed during the...

The boat is currently shrink wrapped for the winter, so it's difficult for me to get in for a photo, but this description by wrxhoon is spot on. There are waterproof fuse holders screwed in next to the battery switch.

The fuse to my front bilge pump is located in my rear battery compartment. It took me a little while to locate it.
