    Bait tank placement questions.

    Yes I agree I don’t like wet feet! I like a nice dry vessel unless it’s covered in blood🤣! I have a 100 gallon rubber maid container I use to flush my motor in. I will fill up 65 gallons of water with the wash down pump. See how it looks and feels! Thanks for the help, that helps a lot.

    Bait tank placement questions.

    I agree it is a lot of weight 440 pounds of water. But is it any more than running twin 250’s? I will weight test this week that is a great idea. As far as fishing goes a transom style better fits the way I fish even in SoCal. It opens the whole deck as far as lobster hooping goes and heading...

    Had a bad day and my rub rail screws broke need help!!

    The reason I ask it is because I was able to pick the top cap with just my shoulder. Just the four foot section in unscrewed and re bolted. But I really like your idea of glassing the top cap to the hull. Do you have any pictures on how this turned out? And the type of glass you used 1708 and...

    Had a bad day and my rub rail screws broke need help!!

    Hey warthog! I am able to get acces where every all the way around. I will be bolting it back. I know you said to use an epoxy but would q-cel and iso laminated resin do the trick as well. Planning on taking the complete rub rail off this winter and redoing the whole thing. After putting the...

    How to plumb bait tank on 2320?

    Drilling through your bulkhead is the biggest pain. use extra caution and take your time. I use a one inch fill line and a 1 1/2" bilge drain hose. You can do you drain under the water line but I like mine above. For some reason I like to hear my tank draining out and not into my fuel tank. I...

    I/O to outboard conversion 1990 2520 mvph

    So I have some questions about what paint you guys like to use for your non skid and the ratio’s you use? Do I need to prime before I paint? What color should I use? I am no painter that’s for sure but I can’t afford a lot more on this boat! I am planning on using soft sand medium for my...

    I/O to outboard conversion 1990 2520 mvph

    Well i have been extremely busy out here between rebuilding power lines after the Fires and working on the boat. Sorry I forgot to get pictures of the tank installed before the deck was put on. Everything is going great and should be ready for a Yamaha f300 next week.

    2520 fuel tank

    Like everyone else said check all the others possibilities first. I am in the middle of that project right now. Measure through your pie holes is the best way to get the marks to cut your deck. Here’s a link. I/O to outboard conversion 1990 2520 mvph

    I/O to outboard conversion 1990 2520 mvph

    The fuel tank was completed yesterday. Today I sanded and cleaned the tank. Applied a self etching primer to the tank as well. Then rolled 2 coats of coal tar epoxy. Looks great. Super easy to do. But that stuff really does get everywhere. Also the rear transom got glassed today as well.
