    Need advise, windlass install '90 searfarer

    I installed 700 Pro-Fish on my 87 Gulfstream last summer. Similar setup to yours, but no pulpit. I mounted mine right on top of the anchor hatch, through bolted the hatch closed, and reinforced it all underneath. You could do the same thing, but maybe raise the windlass to the same level as the...

    Mounting a windlass on a 1988 Grady White Sailfish

    I mounted one on my 87 Gulfstream this spring. Your bow area looks similar. In the locker, the all thread came out, along with the gizmo that's bolted to the bow eye. The bow eye is now bolted to an 8" piece of 1/4 x 1/4 x 2" ss angle iron, with radiused ends for smoothness. It also has a hole...

    GulfStream Windlass Install?

    Last night I picked up a Lewmar Profish to put on our 87 Gulfstream. With the 8 plait rode and 15' of 1/4 chain. Standard HD switch with the 50 amp breaker. Not sure how/where to mount it, and looking for suggestions. Searches didn't bring too much back. Anyone have pictures of one installed...

    232 Gulfstream Aux fuel tank filling

    I just replaced my hoses in October. I cut a 6"round plate in at the fills. There should be an inspection plate on the inside of the cabin to look at the fill hose and rigging. That area is pretty busy down there. Curmudgeon is right. It would be very unusual to have that fill hose kinked. But...

    sailfish rocket launcher height

    Can't comment on the height, but I would suggest a six rod launcher with four straight up center ones, and each end one angled at 60 degrees. That was the setup on my last boat (custom hardtop & built in launcher). The outer ones were part of my 7 rod striper spread when at anchor. Many fish...

    83 Tournament 19 Leaking Fuel Tank

    On my 2 boats, that plug was loosely secured to the bulkhead with a short piece of brass chain. I guess so it wouldn't go far. If by 'hatch' you mean the compartment where the tank sits; yes it has to be as watertight as can be. Not just for water,but fumes, too. Usually, the water in there...

    83 Tournament 19 Leaking Fuel Tank

    The PVC pipe that drains the tank area should be plugged where it empties into the rear bilge. A regular rubber screw type plug is all that GW used there.
