GW Performance Welding 609 569-9911 They are a sponsor here.....they are fast and know everything about GW's. I would use them again in a heartbeat.

I have a GO Light remote spot (hard wired) mounted on the hard top of my Offshore and spreaders for the aft deck. They don't get a lot of use but they are invaluable when I need them. The Go Light is not cheap at $500+...but it works as advertised.

The 2 Offshores I have owned both were standard with 2 tanks.

Zackly Dennis! The whole fuel fill arrangement is bigger and sturdier than anything I can find now. It is only a plastic cap but nothing else will fit.

Hello All.....this might be a silly question but I have been wrestling with this for a few years now. I bought a 1982 Offshore a few years back.....did a ton of work and I am very happy with the boat but......when I bought it the previous owner told me the aux fuel tank was no good and not to...

Just sayin.....I absolutely love my '82 Offshore. Boat is 41 years old and sound....I use my head but I trust her. I have it fitted out the way I like it.....rod holders everywhere....hard top....full enclosure....porta potty for the Admiral....swing back cooler seat installed....radar...trim...

What he said! I just spent a frustrating 30 minutes trying to line up the screw holes on my new sending unit. Also....if you change it keep the old screws...the screws that came with my new unit had a different thread than the old one.

Chris.....do me a favor and look under the seat in the cabin right behind the bulkhead from the helm.....is there a pump/actuator in there?

I had a 1985 and now own a 1982 Offshore....steering is hydraulic. My 1985 had a pump under the V Berth inside the cabin...opposite the helm...that you had to pump up with air from a bicycle pump ocasionally....take a look. Or as others have said....a gasket or something may have let go and you...

Old school all the way on this boat.

I do have a pie plate but I think the previous owner (many moons ago) changed out the tank and the sender is not aligned with the pie plate.

Nice work Lucky.....I am in the commercial floorcovering business in NYC and I can say that is a pretty good installation.

Hello All......I own a 1982 Offshore.....most everything has been replaced/restored to this point. I was out fishing last week and out of nowhere my fuel gauge for the main tank went out. I know I had at least 1/2 tank and the needle dropped to E. When I hit the switch to turn it on it twitches...

Yes Lucky.....get her nose up in a following sea so you don't bow steer and work the throttle to try to keep her from surfing.

I have had a few Offshores.....a 1985 with a Yammi 250....the boat had plenty of power for my tastes....would do a little over 40mph with 2 guys and a decent load of fuel and gear. That Yammi would still be running if not for hurricane Sandy. I now own a 1982 Offshore with a 225 E Tec.....37...

I have an old (1982) 24 Offshore with a 225 ETec....with just me and a light load of fuel I am getting 38MPH top end....you should certainly do better.

Congrats and best of luck with her!!

Thanks......I am going to replace that switch in the spring...for sure.

That was my first thought....double and triple checked throttle position.

Well....I will tell you Skunk......it was raining....I was wet and miserable.....I was not happy that it looked like I was going to be delayed in winterizing/covering the boat as I always end up in a race with the weather here in the NE. I let the boat get snow and ice in it once....never again...
