I've got a mercury 25 hp already on standby

Thanks guys! A little break here for memorial weekend but I will have more pictures soon.

I inherited my grandfathers 1952 Barracuda, it's a 14' aluminum V bottom, it's been covered in my aunts barn for the last 15 years she was going to junk it I said no way! Hope you all enjoy, feel free to criticize or add to my build.

Hi I know this post is an old one, but you wouldn't happen to have a schematic of sorts I could follow do you? I inherited my grandpas boat (14') and I want to do the same set up for me and my five year old son. Any help would be greatly appreciated, GREAT BUILD!

Of course like you, I have a few questions. I just want to make sure I order enough parts, or if you know any local chain stores that I can pick up a breaker and buss bars that would help. My question is this is what I need to hook up :shock: :!: :?: NEED TO ATTACH: 1-Bow and stern nav...

Thanks for taking the time to help me out Big I appreciate it!

Hey everyone, I have an 18' lund that I bought, the prior owner completely gutted the wires with intentions to redo it but never got around to it I guess. I need to wire up everything, and I added a few things to the boat I'd like to hook up properly. If anyone can help it would be greatly...

Hey everyone, I have a Mercury 200 (20HP) long shaft tiller motor, I recently rebuilt the carb, fuel pump, water pump, new points, recoil, plugs, etc...I am having problems with getting a spark, the condenser was tested and is good, I was told I should adjust the timing on the motor and I have...

sounds good guys I'll get to that this sunday, yeah once it's running it hauls a** even with my mods done to the 12' mirrocraft, it was topping out at 21 knots, but if it's been off for a couple of hours its another 5min + ordeal to get it started again.

I have a 1972 Mercury 20/HP tiller, I inherited it from my grandfather and it sat for the last two summers, at first it wouldn't start up, with some work, replacing a few wires I got it started and took it out on the lake yesterday. Once she is started it runs like a top, flys across the water...

yeah that's what I figured, just wasn't sure if it would work, I don't want to be a dead duck in the cribs..lol..well thanks for the advice I'll look at my options and just have to go with the lesser.

38lbs is still quite a bit of weight, I converted this boat into a bass boat https://www.tinboats.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=26016 so I don't want to add a huge battery, I was wondering if the personal watercraft batteries for say a jet ski and what not would work or if I'm wasting my money with...

I have a new motor guide 40 thrust tiller trolling motor that is on my 12' john boat, what type of battery can I use that is smaller than the typical marine deep cycle because I don't want to jam a bunch of weight in the boat with a huge battery? Any idea's are appreciated.

That was too easy!

Hey guys, So I worked on the motor for the past two days, took apart the carb. cleaned it out good, replaced two cracked fuel lines, 4 cracked wires, ran a fuel treatment through the tank, and cleaned off the points from the spark plug wires into the coil as there was some (humidity formed)...
