    Bilge Pump Placement

    I've look at a few posts on pump'n switch upgrades and for the life of me I can't figure out why my setup is as shown... It may be difficulct to see in the photo; the float switch is lower in the bilge than the pump. :? Is there any rationale for this? I reviewed Megabyte's project...

    Ring Free Alternative

    Has anyone heard of folks using this fuel treatment from Lucas Oil? http://www.lucasoil.com/products/displa ... 2&loc=show I'm wondering if it is a viable alternative for our Yammie 4-strokes. The spec sheet seems to indicate it does lots like Ring Free. I spoke with someone who'd been using...

    Lenco Trim Tab Upgrade (Again?)

    Hello All, I've been far-of-field for way too long now, and I hope to be able to contribute this year... I'd like to get advise on doing the 12x12 to 18x12 Lenco swap. It's been way too long and I got to get it done for this season before splash day. I want to leave the actuator in place and...

    We Did It Again!

    This time though, we only got a better photo of one "CLASSIC PARKER" at dawn :wink: Then, a picturesque sunrise over Cape Ann. We sure felt safe and secure with the USCG cutter patrolling our fishing grounds, and my new antique 14/0 senator got its first workout to no avail. Evidently the...

    Our First School Bluefin on the Good-Ship CHOP~CHOP

    Sharon, my Admiral, and I set out for our first tuna trip together this past Friday morning. We got off the dock by about 0600. We had about a one hour run to the south side of Cape Ann. A 15kt NE blow made for a fun ride down the Stellwagen Bank. I took it slow so as not to instigate a...

    Mounting New Radar and Fun with Fish Tape

    I'd like to get some advice on Raymarime Radar Install. I was planning to route cable from the starboard front corner of hardtop, through its aluminum tube, down behind storage area, and up behind helm. But, I spent nearly two hours trying to run the fish tape. No success yet; there's a right...

    Bottom Paint Dilemma

    Unfortunate circumstance when the boat was new; hull was improperly prep'd, apparently mpld release wax wasn't completely removed. Light sand-blasting has removed most paint in those areas where initial paint and skip-sand never stuck. The other areas have a substantial amount of paint where...

    Just Getting Ready

    Hello All, I am the recent proud owner of "Chop~Chop"; the 2510 WA MV is everything I had expected. There have been a few surprises, I may well should have expected. More on this in days to come. :wink: I originally hail from Cape Cod Bay where I was fortunate to learn and play on my Dad's...
