I saw this Westski video a while ago and I just laugh everytime I see and hear it. The thing is running a 350 Chevy. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UkXGlY-nH5U

Wishing everyone a belated New Year! I hope it's better then '09 for everyone!

Nice boat! AMEN!!!

Something to ponder would be a blower fan to help vent the fumes from the compartment to prevent explosion while starting however the source of the fumes should still be found.

Wow, I didn't know so many names were effected with this, especially Glastron and Ranger. It suxs to hear regardless of the manufacturer!!!

Sorry but I don't care for the looks of it. Looks like it's missing torpedo tubes and a machine gun?

That's funny because this was the first year that I actually saw a patrol boat doing safety checks where we boat. Although gas prices were better this past year then in previous years, the weather was just terrible which was our biggest factor with regards to any reduction of boaters. For the...

Welcome to the forums! :welcome: Be sure to post pictures of your boat when you get a chance...we love pictures in here :D

Best to find a variable speed buffer but the speeds are dictated by the polish that you use. I think 3M products use lower speeds where Aqua-buff and similar products use higher speeds. Most marine polishes will work for light oxidation but I would suggest a light wet sanding with 1000 prior to...

That suxs to hear! I know it's been real bad here with props being stolen.

You should be very proud of that boat!!! What type and size outboard do you plan on running on it?

That's pretty good.

I removed some more rotted core while standing on my head today. It has to be the best thing to do when not watching football...NOT! Anyways, it had to be done and here are some pictures of the core removed and hopefully I will have it replaced later this week.

Thanks for all the tips. I'm using microballons for a thickening agent and sometimes I add homemade glass fibers for added strength. I learned the hardway about mixing too much at a time so I work in smaller batches. I have several tools for glassing and the main tool I use is the cheap chip...

I've never driven a pontoon but I boat on the Ohio river east of Cincinnati and the river tends to get fairly nasty with the swells from the big speed boats and jet skis. Nasty enough to not want to be in a 18' runabout but I see pontoons all day long out there regardless of conditions. The...

Sailing would be neat to learn about.

Welcome to the forum! Great to have you aboard and feel free ask away.

Here is an update on progress...I have all my pieces glassed on both sides except my deck. I have the bottom side glassed but will do the top side after installation. Meanwhile, I bought a Silverline tri hull for an extra motor. I bought the boat, motor and trailer for $500. Here are some pictures.

Definitely add pictures!
