Give me a couple days and I'll check on mine to see if its still there, if it is you can have it, I'll be replacing all my gauges since half of them are missing. Its an earlier year tri cabin.

when you changed the fuel filters did you by chance empty them into a clear clean glass to see how much trash was in them? If they were relatively clean then it is more then likely what the others have said, a hole in the pickup tube. Also if you filled up with e10 gas then it could be cleaning all ...

I am thinking about cutting down some old/broken teak into thin strips to redo mine, but it looks like the way you did it would be a lot easier.

What did you use for the insulation? J know i'm a ways from that stage, but it helps to have a game plan and what all to get., looks mighty good.

There is two 80 gallon and two 40 gallon tanks, since they are all full I reckon it would be safe to say they dont leak. But want to take them out and clean them out and clean and paint the bilge beneath them.

Rick-
I know from past experiences when you think you have enough space in the fuse block, better buy another one.

Found out today when I was going to take out the fuel tanks to clean and inspect them, that all four of them are slam full of old stale gas, so the fun continues.

could also be one of the 400,000 thru hull fittings on these boats,

I've got a tandem axle, 9,000lb rated traitor and my f25 just about max's out it, I agree with fooferb, best bet is to get a trip axle with brakes.

aaron- mines been well loved and taken care of,

Thanks aaron for that valuable information, fortunately both drives still have a readable data plate on them, definitely going to book mark that their site.

So far over the last two days I have removed about 300 ft of 12v wire most of which wasn't attached at either end, and about 150 ft of 110v in the same condition.

Its not my first rodeo, have redone a few in a little worst shape then this, I dont know what i like to do more, work on the boats or take them out. Rickalan- I dont have either the engines or trannies, was thinking of going with twin 350's and either a velvet drive 71c or 72c, I know the walter v-d...

Started the initial tear apart and see what I got stage of the rebuild of my 36 tri-cabin, what a mess I have. Wires going nowhere, wiring spliced here and there, fuel tanks slightly corroded, fibre glass fresh water tank, at least thats what its labeled as, looks more like the holding tank, either ...

I use a five gallon bucket, a trash bag and special kitty kitty litter and then in the trash can it goes when we get back in.

I agree with rooferdave, I think ceder would be my last choice of wood to use. I think seaboard would be a better choice, or some ply wrapped in glass.
