    Cracks in Bilge area-21' SC

    Hi, yes I think it might have to be replaced. There is almost total separation on that top surface. I unscrewed the pump and flow lever and can lift the gel coat/fiberglass layer right up. Can only assume it's rotted bad. I was thinking maybe a piece of pvc plate or another material the...

    Cracks in Bilge area-21' SC

    Hi, I purchased this boat late last fall, first time boat owner. One of the projects I wanted to tackle this winter was replacement of the inspection covers and bilge cover on deck. The bilge area needed a good cleaning so I've been tackling that today. While cleaning I discovered two fairly...

    Window Piston's- Save $300+

    Hi, Order the 11-1/8" to 17-7/8" Part # 321291-1 if you decide to go with the one you need to swap one end with. I think I found the exact match here https://www.fisheriessupply.com/sea-dog ... 1-321293c1 but they dont stock these but can get them. I was told a few weeks wait, I ordered three...

    Window Piston's- Save $300+

    Hi, When I purchased my boat these window pistons were badly rusted and I wanted to replace them. All I could find is the piston for $104 so a set of four would be over $400 - no thanks. I was actually designing custom window piston made of 316 stainless steel when I came across this Seadog...

    Under Pulpit Mounted Spot Light

    Antidote, thanks for all the suggestions. The visor sounds interesting and maybe something to pursue. Guess the only way to figure it out is to go out at night with some cardboard pieces and see if the light can be blocked. In the meantime I've come up with a simpler version of the bow mounted...

    Under Pulpit Mounted Spot Light

    Hi Brent, thanks for the praise. I was a drafter before becoming an engineer. I've always enjoyed designing things. I just purchased my first boat this fall and reading all the good stuff on this website has sparked my interest. Im not sure how much I need a spot light but it could only be an...

    Under Pulpit Mounted Spot Light

    Hi Andy, thanks for your comment, appreciate the praise. I think the design would work, I've moved the light far enough forward so it will rotate fully without interference. Unfortunately my boat is shrink wrapped so Im not sure the diameter and spacing of the bow rail. I choose 1-1/4" Diameter...

    Under Pulpit Mounted Spot Light

    Brent, thanks for the update. Yes I did end up finding the right Bilge hatch I believe but from another distributor but appreciate the information. This is the one I found https://www.greatlakesskipper.com/innov ... deck-hatch The cut out dimensions are only a 1/4" difference and this looks...

    Under Pulpit Mounted Spot Light

    Andy, started thinking about your configuration with the golight. Here is another concept I've designed. I've made the height of the light centered on the rail so there will be even less of a distraction with in-line sight if there is even any now and doesn't need to be mounted upside down. Its...

    Brent, I purchaced this Black Oak product https://www.blackoakled.com/collections ... ader-light as a spreader light. The quality seems very nice. Do you think the one your looking at will have a sufficient power output? Please let me know what Black Oak has to say, when I wrote they recommended...

    Under Pulpit Mounted Spot Light

    Brent & Andy, thanks for your replies. Brent, I was actually looking into one from Black Oak Led https://www.blackoakled.com/collections ... ine-series but it was very expensive. I did purchase a spreader light from Black Oak and the quality is superb but this was more than I can spend. Brent...

    Under Pulpit Mounted Spot Light

    Hi, I've been working on a design for a stainless steel bracket to support a spot light, probably a Golight with remote. Looking for advice on it's environmental practically, function and wiring. Question's would be : Is this too harsh a location? Is this too low to waterline to function...

    Re: Fuel Tank with deck cover removed

    Hi, This 2006 2120 SC was just purchased this fall. I am a first time boat owner and have read all the horror stories about the fuel tank and foam issues. Are these photos something that would be considered normal for a boat of this age? There is no strong odor of fuel but I would not say its...
