    "Wanted" Checkmate Enticer

    How serious are you? I have an '86 Enticer, red metal flake with a 150 Mariner that I may consider depending on price. I have done a lot of work and kind of in the middle of it. New transom, floor, stringer, some core has been replaced. The interior that is there (not complete) is all new. I am...

    WATER STAINS

    You could always try toilet bowl cleaner. Put it on, let it sit for a few minutes and scrub away.

    Cool Offshore racing clips!

    I just did a search on Ben Kramer, I had no idea who he is, all I have to say is WOW! "Rots in jail" is a good way to put it.

    core replacement questions

    Exactly what YellowFiero said, the pad is 3/4" and everything else is 1/2" When I did some replacement on mine it only measured the pad and was suprised when everything else was too thick, I just sanded it down with a belt sander to get it close.

    Watch where you park!!

    Saw this on the local news website. Don't know if I'm more impressed with the landing or the boat holding up the car. http://www.woodtv.com/dpp/news/local/ottawa_county/vehicle-crashes-onto-docked-boat?ref=scroller&categoryId=10001&status=true

    Fiberglass on gel coat finish- what to do?

    If you're very very careful, I'd say try a razor blade. Make sure the blade is flat on the boat and take it easy. I have done this many times with removing decals and the like with great success.

    225 HP Enticer

    I am running dual cable on my Enticer with a 150 and with any more power I'd run hydro steering. There is no issue running the dual cable steering on an Enticer. Due to my jack plate (4"), I did cut an extra hole for the cables to exit so the cables aren't bent too much. Very similar to what Mr...

    Spectra Bench Rebuild Resin Question

    Your upholsterer should have no problem stapling through resin. I redid the bottom of my bucket seats with new wood, resin and 17oz glass and the staples had no problem with the fiberglass. So I say go ahead and coat your wood, if you're still going to do that, even lay fiberglass if you want...

    Checkmate using stickers??

    I think the picture before the bow graffics looks a lot better than the after shot. I'm a minumalist when it comes to graffics, but the rear griffics are just enough to set it apart from anything else.
