Henry; Go to this link and you will see that one just like yours just sold on e-bay. It has the top you speak of. Also I have pics of a restored example that I can e-mail you. Just send me a message on ccbarrelback@cox.net http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1,1&item=46296050...

Paul; Based on your question you are at the bottom of a pretty big learning curve, but never fear the answers are out there. First, You need to understand that having to soak your bottom for three days is not a good thing and show that it is worn out and most likely not very safe. Originally the bot...

Don; First, names have been put on the sides and transom from the earliest days. Most of the time this was done in gold, silver, or paint. This type of lettering is becoming a lost art and does produce wonderful results. The problem is finding someone who has the talent and time. This gets pretty ex...

Tell us what kind of bottom you have on your boat. Original, or something else. Yes, oil in gerneral is not good for many reasons. I would use some type of detergent to srub with and then suck it out with a wet vac. Get all the bulk oil out first with rags etc and then clean the fire out of it with ...

Kerry; You are confusing the woods. The Cedar that was used for the painted boats was not the same as Spanish Cedar which does looks like mahogany. Spanish is a little harder and is lighter in color (less redness). At the symposium here in Cincinnati, OH Wilson Wright did a talk and discussed the su...

You guys are correct in your thinking. For the historical record There was a Coast Guard reg that changed boating across the industry. Chris Craft, as many of you know had vented their tanks through a small hole in the gas cap. On 12-13-1940 memo Number 761 made the change from gas cap venting to ov...

Ed; If you do not want to damage your plate you will have to drill a small hole in the center of the "Drive Screw" and use an "easy out" to remove. Then you can put it back in with a new drive screw. If we had a way of downloading pics I would put some on here. Hope Basler will get that up and runni...

I'm a little confused by your post. There should not be any oak "deck frames" in the back of a 1941 18'. Those would have been mahogany. The only oak in that area would have been the transome bow, transom uprights and chimes. The answer to your question is that they were not steamed and were cut fro...

Brad; Most likely your need to adjust the Tranny. It is a Paragon and is pretty straight forward. When you say it will not go into forward, do you mean that the output shaft will not turn at all or do you mean that it will not "lock" in and stay in forward. The reverse function is a brake band that ...
