  1. Dyeing Fabric window covers

    I have just changed my boot and feature stripe to black and my canvas/fabric window covers that snap on the outside are blue. They are in great shape so I hate to buy new ones and was wondering if anyone had ever tried to dye it and if you had any suggestions. Thx

  3. Windlass recommendation

    I plan to install a Windlass on my 47' Chris Craft (WET & WILD) to avoid having to use the old Capstan. I'd want one with remote control and would use both rope and chain. I'd value your recommendations on this size boat. Thanks Clint

  4. Injectors

    I have been chasing down some smoke on my starboard motor while at idle that it have never had before. I found the offending injector ( of course it was on the outboard side where it is nice and roomy) and I switched it out. What a difference when I took her out and her ran like a raped ape no...
