Re: 32 Sedan Adding Air Conditioning

The highest amp draw devices are hot water, AC/heat & electric stove. You can run any 2 of these at once on 30A. This is assuming you have factory hot water tank and not a higher rated after market tank. Ive been managing all the above on 30Amp for years and only occasionally trip the master 30A...

Window tracks changed to black anodized in 86 Intake cowls changed from rounded to square in 85 Canvas line does not follow the raked pillar seen on the sedan and late 85 sedans changed...

Re: Who to not to shop from

Always check here before ordering from unknown, online source. I've used this site since the 90's. It does not list everyone but they are constantly adding to it.

Re: hull repair

Good luck welding the hull....thanks to the black crud Marinette sprayed on the inside of the hull you or someone you pay will spend plenty of time scraping and cleaning the hull free of that stuff.

The factory size diameter is so small they get clogged up and don't drain. Plus the old rubber gaskets would sink up into the weep hole. The hard starboard will n...

Re: Broken Flybridge Throttle Control

I know from my own repairs that the 80's Marinettes use Teleflex cables. The model number is stamped on the plastic sleeve. The bridge is connected to the lower helm control. On that same lower control there is another (shorter) cable that runs to the carb. You will need to replace the cable that co...

Re: Shifters
