Does the paralell...
...and acc switches do anything?
Do all three of the transom lights come on at one time, or can you just have the center one on? I'll need to go back through my books, but I think by regs there is only suppose to be one transom light while underway, but I think the three can be lit when at anchor. Not sure about that. OK, collectable! PS: Not sure, but I think your boat is a Webbcraft by Concorde, and Concorde is still in business. What are the first three symbols of the serial #? |
I've been using Buff Magic compound. I'll let it cook in the sun and see what happens
|
Maybe admin can movet this to the boating on a budget thread?

take your time and look for the mate to your engine and dont be cheap about it..the engine you posted looks to be out of a cruiser and may not be a mag engine..ask for better pics of the intake manifold..try to buy a engine that is in the inner states and not coastal states to avoid salt water engines...

I already have 2 bottles of Collonite #925 on the shelf....good stuff. I used it in the past when I was in Rhode Island

They were called a Webbcraft Concorde, built by Webbcraft, in Collinsville, Oklahoma. Is that a 27 or a30 they made both. I had a 27 with twin 330hp 454 mercs back in 1988. They went out of business in the early 90s. Built a hell of a lot of smaller 18-24 footers in their day.

It's the 30' Concorde

Subscribed! Nice find!

Still cleaning. I did manage to find a pair of the original Webbcraft emblems, not perfect but they with clean up nice. They look worse than they really are, but they are at least in one piece! An engine is in transit. All in all, there is progress! BTW...the picture of the emblems is not my boat, it's the donor boat.. Even before I started cleaning mine didn't look that bad...hahahaha
