G’day raiders, just wondering if anyone knows of a decent mobile leccy who can help me finish the wiring on my boat. I’m in the Galston area. Thanking you all in advance. cooky.

Will do mate. Thanks

Hey Frank. Sent you a couple of emails mate

Blue

Thanks mate. I'll do that now. Cheers Cooky

G’day Raiders, Quick one about fuel bladders. My restoration has revealed that the old fibreglass fuel tank needs to go. Has anyone had any experience (good, bad or otherwise) with fuel bladders ? Thanks all Cooky

Looks good Jon. Thanks for that. Certainly good for thought. Like the way it’s set up

Morning Raiders, Wanting to know if anyone has gone to the lengths of going from trailer rollers to bunks to make self launch easier ?

Hi Raiders, following on from recent posts re my boat restoration project, I’m hoping someone can help me with this. The photos show the “current” rack and pinion steering assembly ( I’m pretty sure that t is ), but it’s old and some parts are missing. I’d really like to know what it can be replaced with, such as just a generic rack and pinion kit with the right length cable or perhaps hydraulic. On my old outboard the cable steering always wanted to pull to the right no matter how much I adjusted it and I did hear that those style steering systems did that anyway but I want to avoid that on the new boat (20’ inboard). I hope this makes sense. Any advice would be really appreciated.

Mercruiser - Chevy 304 maybe ?

That makes a lot of sense. Thanks for that

Yeah fair enough too. Thought I'd give it a shot. I'll add pics of the whole boat after I get it back from the engine assessment and see what raiders say. Thanks for replying mate

G’day all, This might be a really pointless question so I’ll apologise up front. Doing the resto on my Pride Bahia Mar 20 and came across this plate on the engine cowling. Is this just something the owner did for himself (I can’t locate him or I’d ask him) or is it something more well known as some sort of I.D. plate. Thanks all.

Where abouts were you mate?

Thanks mate. Yeah definitely nothing on the HIN plates. Thanks for the reply
