Re: 1977 lancer19'w/307engine
Good morning everyone and thanks for all the replies! The flame arrester already has the pcv hose attached and no place for the vent gromment in the kit. After a little research I believe that I have the wrong fuel pump will check a bit further. Thanks again for all the replies.

I am trying to"restore"this boat and am a little confused! The block was replaced with a 350 but it appears that all the 307 accesories were reused. The fuel pump has a "port" on it for a small hose to connect to the carb. but the carb. does not seem to have a port to connect to. Either I have the w...

I made my own! Used a heavy rubber truck mudflap and attached to a length of alum. angle iron which was suspended from the bumper. I had a dually p/u---you can't make it to low or ridge or it will break on a curb!

I have a 1957 23' sea skiff--- the no's are on the cross member behind the rear seat back--just fold the back down and you should see them! Also on the block that the bow light is mounted on --toward the wind shield. Good luck! George

bunk covers
Is there a better cover for "bunks" than carpeting? Seems like the carpeting hold water for a long time and would tend to keep the hull wet and therefore promote rot. Any ideas?

Bottom paint
Has anyone had any experience using "Kush" paints? I have a 1957 Sea Skiff and do not need the antifouling bottom paint as the boat lives on the trailer except when in the water[fresh] ---the longest time would be about a week maybe twice a season. Any other suggestions?

My $.02 worth! I have a 22' sea skiff and had the same problem positioning it on the trailer...I made up a bridle out of tow straps that goes all the way around the hull,including the transom. When retrieving I float the boat all the way on the trailer to the stop..snug up the bridle with the winch ...
