Re: Propeller purchasing - comments on...
Take the short drive up i74 to Shelbyville In. to Marks Propeller Service and he will true you nibrals, does mine all the time, I bang a set every year it seems. He is the best and fair too.

Re: Transport nightmare
I would like to see a short list of midwest boat transporters that folks have had a good experience with and $/mile paid. I am looking to move mine to Erie or St. Claire for a short time, maybe a month or 6 weeks time and back to the Ohio when done.

Re: Exhaust hose advice
The correct exhaust hose has a hard wire wound reinforcement and it not designed to expand. I done a couple of 4" sections on my boat last season and off was a little aggravating but very doable, going back on was uneventful, maybe use some soapy water to help it slide in place.

Re: 1984 360 RAW Water Pump
I just bought new Sherwood G7B's for both engines this season, I was seeming to get less life out of them between needed impeller changes each time. I might send my old ones to depco to reman as spares. For what it was worth i put new impellers in my new pumps before installation, the one was clocke...

Re: keel fin
I have a 39 Sedan and that keel is original and necessary, tracking is good and sorted out from the factory, you can feel good about keeping it original and the anode system is as well is optimized from the factory.

Re: 318 stroker motor 330 HP 349 cu.in.

Re: Handling around the dock
SeaRay 370 SD -vs- 39 Marinette Sedan. I have had both boats in recent years and at the same time for a while, I would ten times rather run the Marinette alone due to the ability to move around the boats gunwales so easily and making it easier to handle lines. I lock through alone in my 39 at will. ...
