    Lee 15' Skiff Outrigger pole replacement

    I have a pair of Lee gunnel mounted "Skiff" outriggers that need replacement. The outside diameter or the pole is 1-1/8" which is what I believe is considered a 1-1/4" model (because the female bent tube that goes into the bracket is 1-1/4" OD). Has anyone ever used an alternate brand of pole...

    87 Sailfish 252G engine bracket

    Very interesting. Yes the caulk was bad where the bracket meets the transom and at this stage I have just recaulked using standard bathroom silicone. Have not been to the boat in 3 weeks but plan to launch next weekend after installing recently acquired Attwood SS scuppers. Had gotten acetyl...

    I have an 87 Sailfish. Mine is reached in the head compartment through an access panel to the aft which would be directly under the helm. That was the old set-up.

    87 Sailfish through hull replacement

    87 through hulls If interested job is complete. Spoke with the factory guys and while they wanted to help, had no good advice without me providing pictures. Unfortunately the boat is 600 miles from where I live so each trip needs to produce results. I used a router/cut-out tool and elongated...

    87 Sailfish through hull replacement

    I am attempting to replace the through hulls as they appear to all be original. I am mostly concerned about those below the waterline. Am having trouble with what I believe is the deck and fishbox drain on the starboard side. I am accessing them though a wood panel in the stern of the head...
