My gelcoat is beginning to hold some blood stains at the end of the day, probably needs a buff and wax. In the midst of a fishing blitz I do my best to get blood off ASAP but there are always some clots that leave a ring when scrubbed off at the end of the day. They usually fade away in a day...

It's held to the down by 4 bolts that go through curved washers, through the pipe and into the deck. I want to know what happens when they enter the deck? Are there captive nuts? Does it just screw into the subdeck (read plywood)? I'd like to flip the entire seat 180˚ around to be able to...

I bought this stuff in bulk when I had 2 Honda outboards, these parts were left over. They are for 25 HP and 8HP Engines 1995-2005 year models. Selling as 1 lot, prices are current list for comparison. Over $250 worth of parts for $125, shipped to CONUS. (1) 06192-ZV7-000 Impellar Kit 25hp...

I'm adding a washdown pump which needs a 15A fuse. My 180 has two empty switches in the dash for added accessories. The existing fuse is a 5A. Can I just swap it out for a 15A? Here's where I intend to connect it, does positive just go to the switch and black right to the ground busbar? I...

Putting a Shurflo Blaster raw water washdown pump on my 180 Sportsman. Is there any practical reason to go up to the 4gpm model? Pressure differential is 45psi vs 60psi. water will shoot further and hit harder with the 4gpm but is that of any practical use on an 18ft boat where I'll be able to...

Anyone use them? https://rammount.com/products/rap-s-knobgu

I'm removing the compass from the top of my 180's console and want to fill in the hole properly. What's the correct materials and procedure? It looks like it's 5/8" plywood under the gelcoat, sort of like this pic I lifted from another thread.... I assume I'll screw some temporary backing...

My 2004 180 Sportsman still has the original bronze seacock and thru-hull fitting for the live well. It looks and feels fine, very rigid when I turn the valve handle, so I have no reason to believe anything is wrong. Are these type fittings usually replaced at a certain age as scheduled...

I'm having some end of year work/winterizing done and was thinking of having them shrink wrap the boat but would need to trailer it about 20 miles home at highway speed. Will shrink wrap hold up to that?

I'm considering having 3 sided windscreen for the T-Top on my 180CC.

Looking for 2 used, but good condition.

i want to get a drift sock for fluke fishing on my 180 Sportsman, anyone else try that? What size did you use? thanks, Rob

What size wire are they in the black rubber harness, #2AWG or #4 AWG? Like to know before I cut.

In case anyone is wondering. I couldn't get down into the rear bilge area so I put a DPI 13" x 17" Flush Series Hatch in the deck. Could have gone smaller but may throw some stuff down there. It had to be slightly off center to clear the gas line routing. The hatch is rated for 250lbs. Mounted...

Today I stopped putting off making an opening in the aft deck of my 2004 180 Sportsman. I want to put in an hull transducer and this is the only way to access the inside of the hull. Took some careful measurements from the GW supplied stringer layout and drilled a small test hole. I bent a...

I'd like to get some pointers on how you did it before I start on mine. thanks, Rob

Anyone done it? Considering it and looks like I'll have to cut out some portside bow rail. Anyone?

$100. Looks lightly used but fully operational. Pick up in the Norwalk CT/Vista NY area.

I was on a boat running beside you and wanted to ask a question. thanks, Rob
