You can download a velvet drive owners manual here. http://www.kp44.org/ftp/VelvetDriveServiceManual.pdf Check oil level discussion is on p. 21 of the document, (which is p. 22 of the pdf file). It says check daily before starting. That assumes that you've marked the dipstick for the cold fluid leve...

Sorry guys, Having been through it once, I know what it takes and I'm not up for starting again. I think my next boat will have a tall pole sticking out of the deck to hang triangular pieces of cloth from. Somehow, I don't think that fuel prices are going to stay where they are very long. If OPEC do...

F-32 RI Craig's list, asking $7.5K - considering parting out
Here is a decent looking '73 F-32 in running condition that's been posted on Craig's list Rhode Island boat pages off and on through the fall and winter. http://providence.craigslist.org/boa/1008943630.html http://providence.craigslist.org/boa/972514008.html The price was gradually dropped.

Thanks again to those who submitted a confirmation. So far, from the poll it looks like members of Trojanboats.net are for the most part, not facebook users. I guess that's not a big surprise. I still need a few more confirmations, so if there are any facebook members out there, I would appreciate y...

I had the original Carter AFB on my 318 rebuilt in 2005 by http://carburetorusa.com/carburetor_usa_042.htm I was having trouble hitting the rated RPM, and eventually sent out the carb for rebuild after a lot of other troubleshooting. They did the job right and I got 4,000 rpm from the engine for the...

I agree the 1.75-1 isn't right. It's been advertised locally for over a year. I've never seen the boat in person. Seems like a great opportunity for someone, which is why I posted it here. The name in the Craig's list add is different than the Boat Trader ad. I would go check it out myself, but I'm ...

My approach is similar to Paul, but a little different. I think most people use propylene glycol, non-toxic antifreeze rather than ethylene glycol for the raw water side. Before I start on the raw water side, I check the strength of the ethelyne glycol mix on the fresh water side of the heat exchang...
