That's more better!

She looks very pretty.
She was a 1969 36 ft wooden beauty with big blue 440s that we'll miss forever.

Trailering F26

Post by carlywolf »

Sry Double R for not replying right away .. I do trailer it at times to Key West which is 5 or so hours from Merritt Island to get some of the best fishing in the world but mostly Port Canaveral and 30 miles out to the weedline. I have a 2007 F150 with tow package and its really no problem .Knock on wood . Easy to put in and take out at ramps. Kelly Park here in Merritt Island has great boat ramps. :D

Thx Heiner/Randy, been going over this classic from head to toe for over a month now, had to scrape out salt deposits in the macerator pump, a/c outflow pump and washdown pump. One thing i have learned real thorough is flush flush flush after a day in the sea. Question.. the alternator i have has a regulator that attaches to it, if just the regulator is bad can i just change that? Or is it tied internally to bushings etc etc? ive rebuilt car alt.. but never a marine one

YES - It is the 'Clas Sea' :D :D :D :D

I saw so much impressive pictures, your boat is in excellent condition 1+ !!
Every single part is restored overwhelming - and I like the lightshow :)

So while the most of us screwing, fitting, restoring, trying some etc. you
can glad mix up your lake without any worries - You must be proud of your vessel !
