    I have a 1984 Sleek Craft Kauai I have been working on. 454, Berkeley jet 12JC-A. original 1/4 stringers. Due to a poor trailer design it has developed a hook in the hull. Starting from about 4' from transom running up to about 10'. The peak of the hook on the port side is about 1/4" deep. On...

    I have a 1978 Jetboat and i got it from the girlfriends parents. It has been sitting for some time but the hull is in great shape. all the fiberglass is in good shape except the floor is horrible ill post pictures...

    Our old pontoon boat is starting to get a hair line crack on the aluminum transom. Does anyone know a repair shop in lake havasu who could do repair on this? I usually take the boat for service to the outboard doctor but he doesnt do any metal/welding work. Thank you.

    He fellas, besides a Heli-Coil etc is there anything on the market or tricks out there to get this 5/16 x 18 bolt to bite and hold 13 lbs of torque? It's from my Vette transmission Valve-Body that threads into the aluminum case, I never even got to torque it, I just snugged it up and it pulled...

I am running a blown 509 making around 850 HP. drive has 1;32 gears. Drive was rebuilt around 50 hours ago according to previous owner, who knows how...

    Just got this nifty little part from Bergeron eng, it fixes the wore out gate selector on your diverter handle. Comes as a flat plate, ace employee Bill Culver came up with this idea, machined the diverter housing so the stainless plate fits flush as before, machine a couple of stainless bungs...

    The pics are on the deck, Can I bondo these? Or will primer fill it. Or does it shrink too much?? If I sand all the yellow off cracks are gone, but the one crack between colors is bad. Seems like it would have done this even if it wasn't painted??? Or do I need to reglass the whole decklid or...

    Just Got my new Flat home and want to start working on it. It is an older boat and hasn't been taken care of very well. The construction appears to be first rate, but the years of sitting uncovered in the sun has taken it's toll. The floor looks like it is covered with dry cloth. I am willing to...

    So I've done minimal glass work. I've made some things off of molds and patched a few things here and there that didn't matter all that much. How do you go about fixing something like this? If the stringer is good, do I remove (sand) the old glass or leave it? Once I remove it or if it's a patch...

    Just bought a Chris Craft xk19 and right in front of the windshield on the stbd side there is a major dip in the fiberglass like there was something sitting on it for years. I will take a pic and send it in a bit, but does something like that sound fixable? Theres actually 2 but the other is...

I was just looking for some advice as to how i may go about fixing the bad spot on the gell. the whole gel scheme is done as a fade. If it were a solid color i...

    just lifted my new to me boat off the trailer to replace the bunks and low and behold i found why the seats were the most secure i have ever sat on. some ass hat drilled right through the bottom of the boat and mounted the brackets that way. :(((((( they were exactly under the bunk so i didnt...

    There is rot on each side of my transom from where the old swimstep brackets used to be. The swimstep only had 2 brackets holding it on and some water must have gotten in there and caused the lower side of the mounts to cave into the transom. The previous owner took off the swimstep and had...

    I need to fix or replace my output housing. We exploded a thrust washer at Augusta and when we had it apart, found out the bearing was about gone and the shaft was a little loose in the housing. It got us through the race, but want to fix it before we put the new motor in the boat. Can the...
