Picked up a great deal for a 99 seaark 1652 and trailer for $2000. It’s bare bones just the hull, original sea ark side console, two batteries, 10 gallon tank and a 54lb thrust trolling motor. When I bought it came with an older 55hp evinrude that needed lots of work. I sold it to a friend and...

Picked up a very cheap 85 evinrude 25hp motor that needs work. Compression is good but I believe it had a bad power head gasket. Inside the cowl at the base it was covered in oil. Also had oil all over were the power head connects to mid shaft on the outside. Pulled the powerhead and do...

Was given older model Minn Kota bow mount auto pilot. Don’t know anything about it other then was told it worked until the foot pedal got damaged. Looking for what type of replacement pedal I need. Thanks pics and serial number below.

Black arrows are the side rails I’m talking about, the red arrow is the were the front section was cut in half and is all jagged and dented up from being thrown around. Sorry for the poor picture quality forgot to take some better pictures.

Need some help. Pulled motor off yesterday and also noticed some things since I had more time to finally go over the boat and the pieces that came with it. This is my first aluminum boat so these may be very silly questions. As I was taking the motor off I noticed the corner caps on the back...

Thanks guys I kind of thought the same thing. I was thinking about that merc 90. I actually bought it for my pontoon. Since I’m going to restore this boat I don’t mind keeping it on if I can get it humming good. Only thing I was wondering is it seems like overkill on an 18 ft aluminum boat...

I’ve found many that are close but if you guys have one I would love to see it. That’s the only bad part of the past owner tearing everything out. I’m just not sure how it was originally together.

Want some advice on a potential project. Picked up a 1982 Lund 18’ mr pike? I originally bought this boat for the motor on it (1976 mercury 90hp outboard power trim). The boat looks really rough and the trailer is def scrap. I picked this thing up for $250. Anyways once I got it to my shop...
