I'll bet you I get the Formula back before the Donzi, even though I took the Donzi in in January. That's how my count got so high. I was waiting to get it back then take the 302 there. :mad: :(

Re: Important Message about Cuda
 

So what's wrong with the rigging????

Re: Important Message about Cuda
 

Oh yeah, I'm glad it turned out to be the starter part. I suspected that too, just didn't sound like it was hydrolocked. :drink: :drink:

Re: Important Message about Cuda
 

Nothing really. Even before I brought him the boat, he said he was interested in seeing what original 1986 rigging looked like. He wants to move around all the pumps and stuff, to make it much more clean looking. It will all depend on the money I want to spend.

One thing I'd changing for sure is the bilge pump. It has the original, and I have it jury rigged to work.

Re: Important Message about Cuda
 

My bilge pump is located in what I consider an odd place. Mine is forward of the motors underneath the very end of the fuel tank. On my 242 it was much farther rearwood, almost to the back of the boat.

I suppose the location it's presently in would keep it from clicking on and off too much. Think I've seen two boats in my life that did not accumulate some water in the bilge during the course of a full day out on the water. Usually I pull the plug at the ramp and it streams out for about four seconds. I think it weep's in around the K-Planes. The caulking on those K-Planes is horrendous. Whoever did it was blind and must have used their big toe. I'm going to pull as much of it out as I can and redo it with 4200. (NOT 5200)

Can't understand how people do not understand that a good caulk job is one: it seals, and two: it isn't noticiable. Go figure.....:rolleyes:
