inspection

Has anyone been asked for a Boat Registration other than having your sticker on the Bow? Secondly, I cannot drain my BBC and I.O. to a bone dry state. How do you pass the inspection station? Got my motor back together and tried to water test the boat today. No way Jose. :no:

the lucas rules state that fuel injected boats must have push/pull fuel shutoff valve. is the valve required on EFI engines? If it is required, it would be nice to see how others have the valve mounted.

How do you go about tearing apart a used engine to inspect condition? Can I just pop off a main/rod cap and have a look and retorque them to stock specs? What if someone used a different torque number than stock and I set it to stock? Worst case? Best case? Is it even a good idea...

Hey Guys What is the procedure for getting through the inspection station at Vidal for a boat thats been in Lake Havasu? Thanks

My buddy has an early model Nova and found a short block 396 for it. He is looking to put on the 781 heads. Since he lives out in BFE, he sent me a picture of the block and the pistons. He says they are pretty flat. However, the look to be somewhat domed to me. Maybe it is just my eyes. Can...

Has anyone on here gone through the mussel inspection at Lake Tahoe yet? If so what did they check? Do you need to drain your sea strainers, motors, etc.? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

My 1973 Sanger runnerbottom hasn't been in the water in a long time. A looooooooooooong time :(. To be honest, I don't even know if I'll get it wet next summer. Anyway, the prop has some rust on it near the hub. Back in my 30's, I didn't think too much about it. Now that I'm older, I'm...

I just heard that Lake Don Pedro, Lake New Melones and a couple of others in the area have been closed temporarily. I also heard that most the boats that are failing inspection are Wake Board Boats. The inspections are looking for any water in the boat, including ski lockers, hull, bilge and...
