Re: 21 Project Part 2 The Finish is Coming
well today i cleaned out the boat and washed her, she looks so good without the polen, but now i've left the boat outside and started on the motor i've stripped it so does anyone want to see my Johnson Naked ;D lol , it is close to no paint at all from the power head down.
|
Re: 21 Project Part 2 The Finish is Coming
now you won't belive this, This boat is a 1978 and i cut a hole in the stringer at the transom on both sides for piping, well the other day i noticed this stuff running out of both sides holes, i checked closer and it was sap can you believe a boat that is almost 30 yrs old still has sap in the stringers that will run out, i was like WOW they are in damn good shape i knew but wow.
|
Re: 21 Project Part 2 The Finish is Coming
Sap? Unbelievable! :o
|
Re: 21 Project Part 2 The Finish is Coming
Hey Skools, that 225 E looks a lot like my 150, except that mine is on the V and running.
|
Re: 21 Project Part 2 The Finish is Coming

Re: 21 Project Part 2 The Finish is Coming

but when I checked the numbers (E150TLES) I found it was a 1990. What is the difference between looper and crossflow? By the way Skools, you do nice work. |
Re: 21 Project Part 2 The Finish is Coming
I did a little research and answered my own question.
Here is a link that explains the difference in laymans terms: http://www.outboardrepairs.com/topics/009938.html |

Thanks Guys
Well i didn't work on the boat at all this weekend :-[ Sorry guys lol I was busy building an axle frame for my 30 ft car trailer. Built it all yesterday, got the frame finished but now i've got to get wheels and tires for it currently has the jeep wheels on it. I ended up using 3/8 thick 3 1/2 X 3 1/2 angle for the axle frame and using 1/4 thick 6 inch channel for trailer frame. it should haul anything i want. has 6000 lb springs and 4000 lb axles. |
