    Dual cable routing with jackplate/setback bracket

    No sir I haven't. Working on making a 6" setback bracket but was on vacation so haven't touched it in about a week. Just Google some pics and see where others have placed theirs. That's what I planned on doing. Just make sure you will have enough length wherever you decide to mount them...

    Custom setback bracket

    Speed hole comment was a joke...Lol. I was going to add some thick grade 8 washer to the inside before bolting them on. Also thought about welding some 3/16 plate to the inside where the bolts will pass though to beef it up. I honestly wouldn't go thicker with steel just because of the...

    Custom setback bracket

    Knocked the 2 years of dust off the 82 enchanter last week so have been working hard to get this thing ship shape. Been fixing a few things including stripping the old clear off of it. Was tired of sanding and scraping so I figured I'd try a project I've been thinking of for a bit. I've been...

    Dual cable routing with jackplate/setback bracket

    Thank you all again. If it wasn't for members like you guys on this site I never would have bought an older check. I'm looking forward to getting this boat presentable again. She fired right up after two years of sitting so I hope that is a good sign. Haven't taken it out in over two years...

    Dual cable routing with jackplate/setback bracket

    Awesome...thank you both. That pic was the first that popped up on Google that had what looked like what I was talking about. Also were the offshore looking hoses a kit or did you go a DIY route? I have some plastic conduit on mine but all of it is jammed though the same hole including the...

    Dual cable routing with jackplate/setback bracket

    Been awhile since I posted but I got the enchanter out after two years and have finally been getting to all the little things I've needed to do to it. One of the things is I'm going to be putting a small jackplate or just a setback bracket on it. I know most say it needs 10" or so on these...

    Starting with a plugged up carb......bad idea???

    I've been wanting to do a compression test since i bought the boat...just to see. I need to just buy the gauge and do it already. I def dont think its hurt though. I just really need to keep up on my maintenance from now on and dont let it sit for so long. Thanks guys.
