Rustoleum Restore 10x $25 a gal. at Lowes Supposed to be good on wood surfaces and has a texture to it. I was thinking about using this on the few pieces of exposed wood on my build. Anyone tried this stuff, if even just on their deck at home? I'm wondering if the recomended two coats would...

I got this TM free with my boat. It seems to work most of the time, but sometimes I have to hit the "GO" pedal a few times before it will start. I can hear the relay clicking but the prop doesn't move. Also the prop shuts off when I try to turn and then turns back on when i let off the steer...

Does anyone know if the 1969 Evinrude 25's came with a prop or cam thing to hold the motor up while launching or trolling? I looked all over the motor and can't find one. If not has anyone built one?

I finally got a small boat again to re-do. I'm planning on making this a super light weight boat for use mainly in the Boundary Waters. It will entail doing some portages with portage wheels, and packing it full with camping gear! The seat posts, trolling motor and trailer were all included...

It's been a while since I've been on, but I finally got a new boat! From what I've been able to find out, it's a 1975 Starcraft Seafarer 14. The bottom is about 50" and the transom is 20". Came with the seats, trailer and t/m for $450. The motor was a C/L find (I guess the boat was too) for...

The time has come to sell the boat that I've not even had completed for a year. I want to get something bigger that the family can go on. Can anyone help me out with the price I should sell for? Here is the CL posting. https://minneapolis.craigslist.org/dak/boa/3115430500.html

So last year, with a very heavy load on the boat, the motor seemed to be really sluggish and slow. I was in the Boundary Waters, and one of the other boats with a 9.9 was beating my boat with a '73 merc 20. Not knowing a lot about outboards, I thought that my motor was just old and worn out...

I bought this boat last year, and just now got around to getting some work done. I got the boat motor trailer and a trolling motor for 400 so, I don't feel too bad spending more time and money on it. After about 3 gal of paint stripper and a grinder with wire rope. This boat had several...

Hi all, I'm re-doing my 70's Duracraft 14 ft v. I took apart the transom and found that there was a steel 1/8 in plate about 4.5 inches wide that runs the length of the transom. The plate on the outside of the boat is about 10 by 12 inches also steel. My question is whether that kind of...

Hey everyone, I have been reading this site for a few months now, and recently bought a boat that I want to get fixed up a bit. Its a 73 duracraft 14' v, with a 73 Mercury 200 (20hp). It has a starter on it that I was able to get working with some jumper cables. The boat didn't come with the...
