Re: Quick Fix......I hope.
Just my $.02, but I always double clamp all fuel lines. Wouldn't even consider wire ties. Just personal preference.

Re: 248CC
Wellcraft made a 248 center console with a forward cuddy. They were great hulls. They also made them with twin or single sea drives, twins and large singles.

Re: Panga Anyone?
It's like they say, "If it sounds too good to be true, it's probably too good to be true". You're probably right about the console. They (MIMSA) go from 17' to 23', not a 186 (18'6").

Re: Panga Anyone?
Do a Yahoo search on MIMSA boats and it'll come up. Click on the icon with the American flag and it'll show up in English. Rman, does that boat look like a 23'? It only has a 6' beam. Made in Merida,...

Re: Panga Anyone?
That ain't no Mako. There have been alot of Panga copies in the last few years. I'd love to have that where I fish. Too small to run charters though.

Re: STAINLESS VS. ALUMINUM
On an I/O, you'll never get the entire outdrive out of the water. With my outboard and the cutting board I mounted on top of the splashwell I still have part of the lower unit in the water.
