Re: Stinkys V18 repairs....
Sorry Cajun....the trash done ran. ::)
Just measure the height and add about 1".... 1/2" for top and bottom. Same for width and split it in half. *8) If you need to, I can get some pretty close measurements off my new doors. |
Re: Stinkys V18 repairs....

Thats what I said too!!! Its funny ya know. I have been in this club and actually fished with these guys for over 1.5 years now. However my playing around and strange sense of humor always seems to rub someone the wrong way. I have never met any of yall, but have also never been judged by you guys either. It jusy kinda strange ya know.......a bunch of "strangers" accept you better than your own brothers. :P I am a square peg in a round hole. I need a hug...Willy hold me brother, hold me now!! ::) |
Re: Stinkys V18 repairs....
You know Stink I have been all over this country and over a good chunk of the world and my job has shown me things others might find a little unsettling but I always have enjoyed the differences in people. I love the different charactures I meet and as long as they have a good heart they make my day. You my friend are one of those charactures, don't change because of others opinions.
Now about that ensemble 8) |

Re: Stinkys V18 repairs....
OK guys here ya go!!
I wanted to get rid of some more very unuseable space. My 18 had a "livewell" in front of the console that I never used. It had long since been out of commission and I dont know why they even put them up there. When in anything but slick calm conditions all the water bounces out and the bait gets beat to death too. I keep a cooler in the back for a livewell untill I get the transom enclosed and the bracket on. Here is the before shot: http://www.forumpictureprocessor.com...061406_002.jpg After some grinding: http://www.forumpictureprocessor.com...061406_003.jpg The uneeded livewell:It will be on Ebay, the first 299.95 gets it!! :D http://www.forumpictureprocessor.com...061506_001.jpg Oh my, thats gonna take on water! :o http://www.forumpictureprocessor.com...061406_006.jpg The floor actually cleaned up pretty good where the old livewell sat and now I just have to caulk the front of the gas hatch with some 5200. I know just the thing to cover that up with! Starboard to the rescue!!! :D http://www.forumpictureprocessor.com...s/102_0724.jpg After smoothing the front lip off while being very careful not to damage the console I covered the hole with a piece of 1/2" starboard, which still has to be caulked in. Here is the final result: As you can see now I have room for a cooler and I am able to walk around. Before the cooler had to sit on top of the livewell or get tripped over. http://www.forumpictureprocessor.com...s/102_0718.jpg I even buttoned it down with two Igloo tie downs from a set of cooler chocks holding my 150qt in place of a seat behind the console. I screwed small stainless strap hooks into the console so that I would'nt have to put any more holes in the floor for cooler chocks. ::) http://www.forumpictureprocessor.com...s/102_0720.jpg I LIKE it!! 8) One other tip I thought of that some of you guys might can use was this fan setup. http://www.forumpictureprocessor.com...s/102_0723.jpg I keep a fan blowing into one of the back storage compartments of the boat. It runs ALL the time. If the boat isnt in tow or in the water the fan is going. This keeps the whole inside of the hull from holding moisture when not in use. It even blows through the belly drainage and up under the console. You can also feel air blowing out of the anchor storage up front. I like knowing the water doesnt collect in there...it'll probably add many years to the life of the old girl. ;D |
Re: Stinkys V18 repairs....
Stinky, that fan movin' air thru the bilge has gotta be "The Idea of the Year!!"...as they say on the beer commercial; "BRILLIANT!!"...what a great way to keep her insides dry...
...and super job on the baitwell tear-out...that came out good...ain't Starboard wonderfus!! ;D ;D ... |
Re: Stinkys V18 repairs....
I would have kept the bait well. Would make a great porta-potty. ;D ;D or for those sea sick days ;D ;D
|
Re: Stinkys V18 repairs....
Thanks Rap!!!! Simple but effective. 8)
Hammer, the flange for the drain was broken off so all water and "other" stuff ran into the under console storage. NOT GOOD man!! ::) |
Re: Stinkys V18 repairs....
Stinks - Do you still have that baitwell? If so . . . I'll send you some $$ for it . . . just like it is.

Re: Stinkys V18 repairs....

Re: Stinkys V18 repairs....
Stinky your new set up is great! My Gruman 16' CC had the same set up worked fine. Your right about the water splashing out. Mine had a live well under the helm seat and if you were heading in with fish and it was a little rough the water would come out. Bill Mc ;D

Re: Stinkys V18 repairs....
I did the last couple repairs I had as far as starboard goes tonight. I replaced the back transom hatches with 1/2" because the old ones were looking rough!
Here is a before pic...... http://www.forumpictureprocessor.com...061906_002.jpg Here is the hole on one side...same on both: http://www.forumpictureprocessor.com...061906_001.jpg Here are the two I cut to replace them: http://www.forumpictureprocessor.com...061906_003.jpg Here is the final product after rounding the corners and routing the edges: http://www.forumpictureprocessor.com...061906_004.jpg http://www.forumpictureprocessor.com...061906_005.jpg Did I mention I like starboard? *;D |
Re: Stinkys V18 repairs....
How can you not like it? Now if we could only find a way to make a pair of thongs out of it that wouldn't chafe. :o ::)
