    Try A&J Canvas in Vanceboro, NC (252) 244-1509 The did a lot of work for GW. Re-using the canvas frame isn't how I would do it. Even if its in good shape its a lot of work to get the glass out. The canvas gets damaged along the way and has to be repaired. Then sew back in where the old...

    Bait tank pump constantly vapor locking when coming off of a plane if traveling over 25 knots. I have a 33 Express.

    That's an engineers answer not a practical one. Problem is the high pressure on the clamshell will push water into the pump past the cheap seal. After that the pump is toast. I have also has boat sitting on the bottom at night in the slip sucking sand up damaging the seal and even eroding the...

    Bait tank pump constantly vapor locking when coming off of a plane if traveling over 25 knots. I have a 33 Express.

    Different boat and no problems with air locking the pump. What kind of pump and do you have a clamshell water pickup? I'm using the Rule DR47 1100 GPH pump.

    powering a GoPro off the boat battery?

    I setup the battery pack for use on the tournament boat I fish on. They have a hardtop mount and a awning rail for the battery pack. The Max lens covers the area outside the cockpit and plenty back behind the boat. Cockpit anarchy is also covered. It would be best if it was up in the tower with...

    powering a GoPro off the boat battery?

    While you can buy a large SD card and record all day finding video you want is challenging. I use the Hindsight feature that records all day but only saves the last 30 seconds on the camera. When an event happens you touch the record button and camera will start continuous recording including...

    2006 Bimini 306 windshield

    There are a lot of OEM boat parts like that. GW orders a bunch for a model year and the manufacturer makes them. Someone call up 20 years later, the manufacturer doesn't have the license to make the part for you and you won't pay the price for a one-off build. Same with GW. I don't see anything...

    pulpit

    Some high stress attachments like cleats, awning track, bow pulpits and swim platforms should be bedded. The constant stress of flexing can "work" parts loose with silicone. I would use 3M 4000. UV stable. Good adhesive properties. And these parts rarely need to be seperated. For things like...

    Starter help!!

    Check kill switch lanyard clipped in. Make sure shift is in neutral. Clip volt meter to ground and small lug on engine starter solenoid. Turn key to start - should have +12 vdc on that lug. Does solenoid pull in? It should because this is how high current power is applied to started motor. If...

    Starter help!!

    What does “checked batteries there good” mean? Tight connections are important but I would bet on bad battery. How old is it? Electrolyte levels?

    Electric Reel outlets

    The reels ship with alligator clips. Cut them off and install the Marinco twist lock connector. These are adequate for medium side electric reels.

    pulpit

Mine was held in with lots of silicone caulk. Go around the edges with a knife for score the caulk. Try lifting from the front first - use...

    windows removing

    The front windows are a lot of glass work. I had the tower off and was refinishing the console bubble anyway. When you take the side window frames out you pull the black triangular pieces out that trim the window to the frame. Take the glass out and clean up all the adhesive. Get a piece of...

    Marlin window leak

    Billy - Frank from Cape Self Storage. Most of the GW windows an parts are no longer available. These windows were made to GWE specs. You can't get anyones attention anymore. Your best answer is to make them "fixed" non-opening to eliminate the leaks. Open the hatch like I do to get air...
