    engine mount bolt

    Go right ahead, the other 3 bolts will hold your motor just fine. Since they all were installed at the same time, you may want to do the other 3 as well...one at a time, of course... :lol:

    Yamaha Dead!

    Smokey, Thank you very much. That is my goal. I've been building boats at the OEM level now for 16 years. Have always admired GWs (although I don't agree with some things they do), in fact, in my position as Production Engineer with PL, when we do something new, or are contemplating it, I...

    Yamaha Dead!

    Does your trim switch on the motor work? If so, then the issue lies with the engine harnessing. Check either one of these two in-line fuse holders under the helm... Yellow is ignition power... The fuse may not be blown, it just may not be making good connection. I know we talked about...

    Prisma Composites Preforms for Stringers & Bulkheads

    Richie, For all our boats, Mark Pigeon comes over and takes detailed measurements from the hull flange on the heights needed, plus where the rigging tubes are going to be run and the location for the weep holes. This can take several visits to get the parts down correctly. So stringers are...

    Prisma Composites Preforms for Stringers & Bulkheads

    At Proline, we use all Prisma stringers on our boats that don't have a stringer grid mold. We also use Prisma beams to stiffen hullsides and hatches. Great company, Scott Lewitt and Mark Pigeon are excellent people!

    What to do what to do?

    You know, not to diminish the spill, but it seems life sort of works that way. You get the last big expense out of the way, get some cash put aside to do what you want, and something else craps out! As far as BP goes?
