    Overnighter Ignition switch

    Have a 1986 Overnighter. The key pulls out when engine running and last summer couldn’t turn engine off with key. Pulled main panel off and lots of wires. My owners manual does not give a schematic and I’m afraid to tackle this project. Granted the turn engine off problem only happened once...

    1986 overnighter dash wiring

    I opened the dash of my 1986 Overnighter to find a lot of wiring insulation chewed by mice probably. Everything works with exception of hour meter. Suggestions? Not sure if it’s over my head to replace this, and is there wiring harnesses available. It’s a spaghetti mess.

    Water in bilge of 87 Overnighter 204

    Found the source of leak was the access compartment at the transom. There was a hole or breaking the seal allowing water to go into the bilge. Filled the bilge with water no leaks at the brass thru hull fitting and checked the bilge pump which worked well. Will keep bilge switch on when out...

    Water in bilge of 87 Overnighter 204

    Thanks for the input Bob, I am going to put some water in bilge with drain plug in and check the seal around the thru hull fitting on the bottom of the boat for leakage. Take appropriate action from there. If it does leak I will have a dealer do it. Too much to risk! Anyone have any other...

    Water in bilge of 87 Overnighter 204

    Would these be the thru hull fitting on the bottom? Soldo check thru hull fittings for the bilge pump too? We were in very rough water yesterday and water was over the transom in front of engine. I have only owned this boat about 2 years and never surveyed upon purchasing it. It's been one...

    Water in bilge of 87 Overnighter 204

    Last few outings have noticed considerable water coming from drain plug. I normally leave the bilge pump off. My livewell valve is closed since I need A new livewell pump. Could this water be from defective hoses? Could it be as simple as a new plug? I need help. The water drained for 5...

    Cuddy cabin doors

    Seals on hatches

    I have a 86 overnighter and behind the seats are livewell or bait boxes or dry storage. When it rains I get water in these compartments. Anyone know if these ever had rubber seals to keep water from draining in them from the walkaround alley? And ideas of where to get these products? Thanks....

    fuel tank leak in overnighter

    Chris, Thanks for that important information. You know you never know anything about your boat and the quality that goes into it when you start ripping it apart and looking inside. I will look at GLS and see. My dimensions for proper fitting without modifications to floor were like 22 by...

    fuel tank leak in overnighter

    What size of tank did you replace it with? Where did you get your tank from? Was it the same dimension, I cut the tank in two and got it out since I new the thing leaked like a sive. Debating on dimensions of the new tank. I want it to fit the opening but could make it the same width and a...

    fuel tank leak in overnighter

    Thanks for the information. Not exactly sure what I plan on doing. I will look it over. Yes I looked and the clearances and said to myself how am I going to get this out? And I thought the tilt option might be a possibility. I like the idea of cutting it better than spending the money...

    fuel tank leak in overnighter

    thanks guys, I really have not been back to the boat to do a closer inspection. And from what I have read it is time anyhow for a new tank, but I am remaining optimistic to possibly salvage the tank for another year if replacing it could be put off. When I got the boat a month ago I wondered...

    bait box plug

    I did use an expandable plug and that should work fine. Did you get a replacement gas tank for your 204c? I just bought an 86 204c and am having an issue with a fuel leak. Let me know what you found out where you purchased it. I have a clue this is the original tank so I might need a new...
