The hollow keel dilemma! I'm going to need a lot of advice from the members here on that one. Have thought about filling it with closed cell foam, concrete or fiberglass resin so far.

Thanks for the name comment Scott. Promised my wife I would name it after her if she let me buy it. Took a lot of foot stomping, pouting and whining, but she finally gave in! :lol:

I had the boat trucked home this fall after losing compression in one cylinder on the port motor. I've been wanting to put it in my shop for sometime now and this was the excuse I was looking for.

Thanks Scott. I thought I heard or read that you could reverse the pump and it would run opposite. Be nice if it were true, save a few bucks!

I'm going to put two new long blocks in my 77 F-32. (318s) I can buy standard rotation engines for $400.00 le...

I figure to get an average of 1 mile to the gallon at anything higher than 8 knots and less than opening the secondaries on my 4barrels. This is just an average figured by cruising for the day and then filling the tanks on the way back in to the marina. F32 with 318 chrysler/ 225 hp/ 1100 hrs.
